In March, 2009, I wrote a blog about a fellow who went to an unnamed burger chain and bought 10 hamburgers. Then he used the patties to draw a huge reproduction of the Mona Lisa in burger grease. Now there is another revolting reason not to eat fast-food burgers.

She bought a Happy Meal, took it out of the bag; and, placed it on a shelf in her home office. Then she waited.
McHappy meal after one year sitting on a shelf. Photo courtesy: Joann Brusco. This is that same Happy Meal one year later. She makes note of the fact that she lives in a very dry area; and, that may be responsible for the wavy appearance of the bun. Other than that, the meal looks almost edible.
Joann Brusco says:
My Happy Meal is one year old today and it looks pretty good. It NEVER smelled bad. The food did NOT decompose. It did NOT get moldy, at all.
This is pretty horrendous stuff. Food should decompose, go moldy and smell bad when it is left out in the open for one year.
Does this even fall into the category of real food? I have to wonder about the nutritional content of this "food" (and I use the term loosely).
I wouldn't allow my dog to eat this - why should our children!
