30 Day old McDonalds anyone?
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-6-months.html

Looking almost as fresh as the day it was bought, this McDonald's Happy Meal is in fact a staggering six months old.

Photographed every day for the past half a year by Manhattan artist Sally Davies the kids meal of fries and burger is without a hint of mould or decay.

I don't know what kind of film SHE's using.........but I guarantee the one I found in my car's back seat (left by the granddaughter) after one week looked nothing like that.

I didn't even want to touch it.

Anyone here I can trust want to try the same experiment?

Not that I don't believe her.......but some people do have their agenda.........

I'm not sure about that. We once forgot a quarterpounder in a kitchen's corner, and when we discovered it after some days, the thing looked like if it was at the brink of coming alive.

YES! I wanted to say that... He looks a bit like my Max... Max is mostly white, and he's 3 years old - they normally only live till around 2... Max does have some breathing problems, but he's still eating, drinking and enjoying life, so... who am I to take it away?

Cool! Does this mean I can buy a few dozen McDonald's hamburgers and keep them in the closet in case we lose power for several days this winter?

Obviously, it's a fake.

McDonald's burgers are never served without ketchup and a pickle on it.

Because an "artist" has now turned a Crappy Meal into "art", does this mean it is illegal to eat a Crappy Meal because, in doing so, you would be destroying "art"?
Sounds stupid enough to be true.

Yes. And you can also keep 'Velveeta' cheese and Hostess 'Twinkies' forever too. Both have been found in a recently explored Egyptian burial site dating back to 2560 BC, and are still as eatable as the day they were purchased!
