Alright, not eternal yet.. But it seems that this happy meal has survived for 180 days in the open without decomposing.. woah! According to Yahoo News, Sally Davies, a New York City-based photographer, has documented the 'growth' of this happy meal in her flickr album which was pretty amazing.. At the 180th day, (7th October), the beef pattie just looked a tad darker, with the french fries resembling those dried preserved papaya or mangoes. Amazingly, the bun hasn't gone moldy!
According to this website, it's the high FAT content that perserved the burger/fries.. As for the bun, it contains preservatives calcium propionate and sodium propionate (which are also found in bread sold off the supermarket aisle..) To qoute " A Happy Meal manages to stay unspoiled because it is fatty, salty and practically empty of nutrients -- which, really, are all good reasons to avoid it anyway. "
Imagine all the fat molecules passing through your body... eeeuks.. :(
