Re: 1996 McDonalds Hamburger

I could probably count on my fingers how many times I have eaten in MacDonalds in my life. My kids were never into it and we never liked the 'food' there, and felt as hungry when we left as we did when we went in. Being a non-meat-eater, I am relieved to say I have never subjected myself to one of those. I assume this is not exclusive to MacDonalds burgers. *shudders*

Re: 1996 McDonalds Hamburger
this is a reply I got after posting that link on another site, in amongst a few others who claimed it was a fake burger and another who didnt see what the problem was with a 12 year old burger looking exactly the same as a new one...
"Yeah it's gross, but i have smoked a good few years and drank and taken drugs so i think my chemical intake won't be pushed to the limit with a burger."
WTF?! it's a well documented fact that our bodies now last 25 % longer than they used to after we die..... is McD to blame?!

How do you know it isn't a conspiracy along the lines of alimentarotherapy?
You can see how these things get taken up and spread. Hell, it may be real for all I know, but perhaps a touch of scepticism might be in order...?

Morgan Spurlock (who did 'Super Size Me') wrote about the same thing in his book. He talked to and met a man who had a collection of Macdonalds burgers from various years.

Alimentotherapy, Rod?
Gosh, sounds just like treating your insides with food (and, no doubt, a good talking to). What could you possibly mean? Could you give us any external reference for this?

Re: 1996 McDonalds Hamburger
How odd... I stumbledupon this yesterday and since then I have now seen it 4 times in different places...
Ghastly stuff and I'm proud to say I have never eating anything from any of the major fast food restaurants and never will... how they can call it food is beyond me to be honest!

YUCH!

And I took the one less travelled by
And that has made all the difference.

EDIT I gave a link in this post but it doesn't go anywhere any more, so I've taken it off. I was going to remove the post, but I can't find a button to allow me to do that

The is a complete joke mainly because,
The bun would have gone bad within 12 years even with chemicals in it.
Keeping it in a tupperwear container most likely altered natural biological matter such as water, carbon, bacteria and mold from getting in, so of course it wouldn’t rot.
Also, “I do not claim to be a scientist, I am simply educating parents.”
Isn’t nutrition a science?
If all nutritionists didn’t consider themselves to be scientists, we’d have a huge problem now wouldn’t we?
Another thing is... isn't all of our food made with chemicals, and to make cloning sound like a bad thing is very deceaving, cloning helps us more than people think, it's the leading force in research right now to alter cancers.
Note: I am not at all supporting McD food by any means, I'm just saying that we have enough issues in our world today to deal with other than hoaxs such as this.

you need not be a scientist to call your self a nutritionist , you dont even need to be the slightest bit trained in nutritionxHackAttackx wrote: Isn’t nutrition a science?

Re: 1996 McDonalds Hamburger
The way that we intuit how things decay is not necessarily how they decay anyway.
A professor of my acquaintance at an Ag College has a collection of various organic and chemically-grown fruit and veg in sealed jars. One might imagine that the organic would not be preserved, whereas the chemicals would work to preserve the conventionally grown produce. Far from it. The organic produce is still intact after several years, sitting in a rather potable-looking liquid. The chemically-grown produce is an offensive looking black sludge, unidentifiable as any sort of food. The good prof has studied the cellular make up of the different types of products, and found that the organic produce has squarish cells with little space between them, whereas chemically-grown produce has roundish cells and hence, a lot of space between them. He believes this is what accounts for the difference in the forms of decay.
Archaeologists still find various types of cereals from Roman times, so it may be wrong to jump to conclusions about preserved McDonalds.
Disclosure: I don't eat McDonalds because the smell of it alone makes my stomach turn. I loved that bit in the film when Morgan Spurlock threw up the burger from the car window. I want to see more documentaries with people being sick.

Re: 1996 McDonalds Hamburger
I'm sorry, but that's faked.
The bread would have changed size and shape as it dried (as would the meat). The old burger would be 1/3 the size or less than it was originally. The cut side of the bread would shrink the most, the crust would shrink the least, resulting in a warped bun. The difference in shrinkage would cause tears and cracks to form as well.
Don't like McDonalds hamburgers because of the number of bone and cartilage chunks I've found in them. But, I do like their breakfasts once in a great while.

Odd, I can go one state away and the burgers will taste completely different.I marvel at how McDonalds has infiltrated our entire world. A hamburger here tastes exactly the same in China or some around the world place.
