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

i dunno if this is related, but i just got an email from Redbox titled, "Eat at McDonald's & Score Free Movie Nights!"

i wonder if McD's begged Redbox to run a promotion offering a free movie when you eat at McD's because they're worried this story is going to really hurt business LMAO

EDIT: scratch that, it's coordinated with the whole Monopoly thing. that sure is hilarious timing though Roll

also, a free code for everyone: CHANCEMONOP

That would be nice if "studies" like this one also did "control" specimens as well. That is, next to the McD's Happy Meal, they should also have burger/fries from home (made all natural), from a non-fast food restaurant, and from other fast food chains.

But, we all know why they don't.........the results wouldn't be very shocking since all the specimens would look somewhat the same. Only the all natural bread would be moldy.
