The Immortal Burger

David Whipple says he bought a McDonald's hamburger back in 1999, but instead of eating it, he kept it to see how long it would take to decompose. Fourteen years later, and the thing remains basically the same. It's free of mold and fungus and doesn't even smell bad. Only the pickle decomposed. [franchise.net.au]

If people still smoke than does anyone really think people will stop eating MickyD's no matter how bad it is for you? Really gross though!

That is not natural. That burger needs to move on. perhaps we should introduce it to some flies. 😕
