I've stopped eating fast food three weeks ago because of my GERD problems. I'm cooking more at home now.


News, SACRAMENTO, Sept. 29 (UPI) -- An art experiment suggesting McDonald's food doesn't decay has raised eyebrows -- and raised questions about just what's in those Happy Meals, observers say.

A New York photographer left a McDonald's hamburger Happy Meal, complete with a small side order of french fries, sitting on a shelf in her home for more than 18 weeks. Every three days, Sally Davies took a photo of the food.

The food is so processed it's not even funny. The movie supersize me is a good watch to check out. In the movie they had a mcdonalds burger and fries inside a jar for over a year i believe and it still didn't break down.

I cannot even remember the last time I had any type of fast food.
Over a decade, I would guess.
Stuff's poison.

I've actually never had a Big Mac or a Quarter Pounder in my life. The last time I had even a small McDonald's hamburger would have been at a friend's birthday party, probably back around 1976 or so. If I ate something from there now I know I would get sick. People I know who give it up for even a few weeks get sick when they have one of their burgers again.

Imagine what eating a Big Mac three or four times a week can do to a human body. Nothing good.

I eat some fast food, including fast food hamburgers. But McDonald's usually makes me sick or at least feeling queasy. Plus IMO it's like pureed mush formed into patties. My kids love it precisely because of Happy Meals and toys - the fun of it, not the taste of it.

What a bunch of wimpy sissies! I love McDonalds! It's really quite instructive watching people turn into food cops.

I love McDonalds! I usually get 10 piece chicken nuggets with a medium fries and a large chocolate milk shake with barbeque sauce, if not that, I'll get a caesar salad with a Coca-Cola or sometimes a chocolate milk shake or maybe a sweet tea.
