LOL. The army should issue Happy Meals instead of MREs. With a Ronald McDonald hand grenade included.

Except McDonald's is essentially shiat flavored shiat. At least MRE Chicken with Salsa and Chicken Enchilada taste good. No seriously, they really do taste good. Of course, they keep you from defecating for about 36 hours, but they do indeed taste alright.

McDonalds has the solution for that ... Anything on their menu.

I'm calling bs on this one. I've personally seen moldy hamburger buns from McD's. That's just another of the many reasons I quit eating their food nearly 2 years ago. Maybe the UK allows higher levels of preservatives than we do in the US. Of course it could be that the it tastes like the rest of the food made over there (meaning it's so nasty even the flies won't touch it).

My thoughts exactly.
Maybe if she FROZE IT for a year, it might look like that.

Read the article, the Nutritionist blogger who the article is about is out of Denver. The article is written in the UK.
I have no love of fast food, but I am a free-market-er. Don't want to eat fatty preservative filled crap? Then don't. Nobody is forcing us to eat it.

Just wait until fast food burger joints start touting use of "all natural" beef . . . in this context, it will mean they use cattle that died of natural causes.

Yeah. I think this is another case of a liar with an agenda.
McDonald's food not as nutritionally wholesome as greenie organic? Sure, I can buy that. Doesn't decay or attract insects? Bullsh**t.
The Daily Maily by the way has roughly the credibility of the National Enquirer, so it could be an entirely made up story.

I happen to like McDs double cheeseburger. A good bang for a buck. I don't eat them all the time but when I need a quick bite, they do the trick.....Of course, I am a garbage gut. There is not much I don't like....C rats limas and ham....yum.....chris3

I remember working briefly at a mcdonalds. Have you ever smelled the dumpster there before it is emptied? You can't tell me that food don't rot and attract bugs.
-
Someone just trying to get their 3 minutes of McFame.
-
But she added that during the year-long experiment, no flies or other insects were attracted to the food.
Flies will swarm a pile of sh!t but not a happy meal from McDonalds? ???

I can't find where I read it, but I saw this a few days ago, and it was not on the Daily Mail. I guess they got it from there, who in turn got it from the original source, who I assume is lying through her teeth. I once left some fries and a half-eaten burger from McDonald's on my kitchen table overnight, and they looked rather unappetizing just a few hours after. I obviously threw it away, but I'm sure they would've continued to rot away had I left them there.

it's December 31 2009 at 11:58PM look at this happy meal, now look at it at January 1 2010 at 12:01AM? [popcorn]

My wife is taking a course on nutrition for tots right now (preschool teacher), and her instructor showed her a McD's burger she had personally kept for a year. Same story.
Of course, both women could be lying.

And just for Fistful:
McD's = [barf]

Or it could be the same woman.

We don't live that close to Denver. St. Louis, more like.

I think it depends on the environment. I did a clean up job on a duplex my Dad owned after an eviction getting out all the big stuff and furniture so that a detail cleaning crew could get in there. I found several home cooked hamburgers complete with bun in the shed that I did not know the age of, but were perfectly preserved. Very dried out, but completely intact.

If made from the same general components, organic food has not been shown to have any more nutrients than non-organic.
-
The station dog is a garbage gut and he won't eat McDonalds french fries, put a regular fry in front of him and he'll scarf it down.
-
Makes you wonder what is in that "vegetable" oil they cook the fries in. =|

It probably has LESS of what are technically "nutrients" as non organic food is often loaded with extra vitamins, etc. My point wasn't to disparage non organic food.

Anyone remember the "documentary" Supersize me
On the dvd version of it, in the extras, they did a similar test.
They simply took a hamburger and fries from the local greasy spoon and placed it under a glass cake lid.
They did this for McD 1/4pounder, fries and fish sandwich.
And at room temp just monitored it over several months. The clip showed that the greasy spoon's food decayed pretty quickly, within a week. The McDs stuff took about 4 times longer (but DID decay)
The McDs fries were the one item that after 90days still looked the same.
I can buy that. However I say so what.
Place them all in a small tub of stomach acids and then lets compare.
I used to love McDs fries before they went to the 0trans fat style oil. They just don't taste the same.
All the other items on their menu stink.
I have had the hankering for a McDs meal more than once a year. And each and EVERY time I am left disappointed to the point I wish I could get my money back.
I'll take a Whopper over McDs anyday, sometimes I'm in the mood for a Wendy's double. And a superSonic dbl beats them both.
But I still cook the best burger any fast food place can put out.

It's....get ready for it....vegetable oil. ;/
I know because I used to clean the oil vats at least once a week when I used to work there, during which I changed out the oil.

I remember seeing that. It made me hungry for some McD's.
