Anyone hungry?
Do you really think McDonald's would be in business if their food contained even half of the chemicals people claim it does?
The beef patties are just that. Beef. 100% beef.
Meat rots pretty damn quickly. Try it yourself at home if you don't believe me. Everyone seems to know "someone" who kept a McDonald's cheeseburger for fifteen years. It's an urban myth.
So those aren't ingredients. They are pollutants found in some food. You can probably find these in all the food we eat, water we drink and air we breathe.
And for the long conservation, you just need a clean, cool, dry environment. The meat in those McDonalds burger is cooked to death, there is little chance any bacteria survived, and if the air around is dry enough, it will pull the moisture out of it, diminishing the chance of mold growing on it. Also, the salt content is likely to be high and usually is a good deterrent for life.
It's not surprising those burgers survived. Now he should take a bite.
