When food doesn’t decompose, it’s not food…

Sometimes a picture is worth 1,000 words. And when you string enough pictures together you get a video that tells the story. In this case, it’s the story of a McDonald’s hamburger and fries left out to rot for 180 days.

It never really got to the point where it started rotting.

If the bugs and bacteria don’t want to eat it, why should anyone else?

One thought on “When food doesn’t decompose, it’s not food…

  1. Add enough salt to just about anything and it won’t rot. Once it dries out, mold and bacteria have a hard time getting a foothold.

    If you’re going to skip McDonald’s food, at least skip it for the right reasons: because it’s disgusting and doesn’t taste like much of anything.
