McDonald's Happy Meal resists decomposition for six months

Vladimir Lenin, King Tut and the McDonald's Happy Meal: What do they all have in common? A shocking resistance to Mother Nature's cycle of decomposition and biodegradability, apparently.

That's the disturbing point brought home by the latest project of New York City-based artist and photographer Sally Davies, who bought a McDonald's Happy Meal back in April and left it out in her kitchen to see how well it would hold up over time.

The results? "The only change that I can see is that it has become hard as a rock," Davies told the U.K. Daily Mail.

She proceeded to photograph the Happy Meal each week and posted the pictures to Flickr to record the results of her experiment. Now, just over six months later, the Happy Meal has yet to even grow mold. She told the Daily Mail that "the food is plastic to the touch and has an acrylic sheen to it."

vomitvomitvomit

not surprised shake head....and fat people (MCD addicts) wonder why this stuff doesn't break down after they eat it Scratchchin




...maybe those who come back as zombies are those who only have MCD guts/tissue left after sitting the ground for a while and why they are difficult to kill...and they start craving fresh, real meat

All this tells me is that the week old McD's in the fridge is still safe to eat. Sweet!

I had the windows open many times, but flies and other insects just ignored the Happy Meal. What does that tell you, if they can't be bothered with it?
EEK!

Seriously Mal? Go troll someone else...

Have you been outside of your little cocoon to other countries? 90% of places speak English, it's a universal language for a reason... (including fast food joints)

From the Daily Mail article:

Quote :
Mrs Bruso left the Happy Meal uncovered on a shelf at her home near Denver, Colorado, to see what would happen.

I seriously expected better from you. It is nice when you visit a foreign country, and people do speak English, but to expect it, and be like "those farkers didn't speak English!"

Wow, seriously, ugly American, party of one.

Well, the world does revolve around us. So, they should deal with our language preferences. Whee

Your question sounded rhetorical to me. It didn't sound like you honestly wanted to know. Smilie

I have traveled to several other countries, and yes, I do speak more than English. but nice try. Wink
