I find this very hard to believe.

There are plenty of schools of nutrition that would be against McDonald’s and fine with bacon and eggs.

There’s been a loaf of Stroehmann bread on the kitchen table for about 2 months now. NO mold. Had a loaf of potato bread there for 2 weeks. Green and good for penicillin.

I will never eat Stroehmann again and I grew up on that crap.

it’s...it’s a...IT’S A MIRACLE!

quick, call the vatican! (just kidding).

I mostly surprised that the receipt can be clearly read. I’ve saved receipts like that in the last, and within a year, the ink has faded and the paper changes to the point that the info is illegible.

[Artcore]

Frying locks in the freshness, baby!

The plastic toy also lasts a long time... I am still Pokemons in the couch 20 years later!

Maybe McNuggets are like fine wine.

“I’ll have the ‘08 McNuggets, please”.

“Very good choice, sir”!

[nickcarraway]

I know what you mean, but maybe they had more sun exposure.

I remember years ago having a discussion at work with a guy who saw a report on how they left a can of Crisco out in the wild and no animals would eat it. I replied that humans don’t eat raw Crisco either, but if you use it to fry chicken, french fries or donuts, you can bet the animals would eat it.

Happy Meals.

Made with real Twinkies!

This food does not rot.

Therefore: This food is unhealthy.

Gratuitously assumed premise: Only food that rots is healthy.

A woman who bought a Happy Meal from McDonald’s six years ago says the food has not rotted.

Then she should have no problem heating it up and eating it. I can't believe the amount of sneering and contempt Americans heap on McDonalds and other fast food restaurants - it's as if providing filling, tasty food for a relatively cheap price is a bad thing. Definitely a First-World attitude needed for this - a lot of people around the world who would love to have the problems of these food snobs.

But the toy has turned to dust.

Which had more sun exposure, hers or mine? Mine were stuck in a shoe box with a bunch of other papers and stuck on a shelf. I guess they weren’t from a McDonalds, but I thought most of that cash register paper is made with the same paper and chemicals.

[camle]

just because it doesn’t grow green/fuzzies doesn’t mean it is unhealthy.

[Larry Lucido]

Six years? That ain't nothing!

[Larry Lucido]

By her logic, beef jerky is unhealthy and should never be eaten.

[Ditter]

I’ll bet if she ate it she would decide that it had rotted.

[heartwood]

I don’t get that. Irradiation is supposed to kill all bacteria in the food, not render it unconsumable by bacteria.

And if they can’t eat it...
