Utah Man always has a McDonald hamburger that he bought in 1999
He survived the Clinton Presidency, Y2K and each version of the iPhone
Pop Quiz Time: How long do you think aMcDonalds Burger can maintain a new appearance? Two o'clock? Two days? Two weeks?
How about twodecades?
Yes, it's true: a macdo hamburger can apparently survive longer than most pets. As indicated byKutv, a CBS subsidiary in Salt Lake City, a man from Heber City, Utah, has retained a McDonald hamburger since July 7, 1999.
So, how is a cake born in the Clinton Surviving Y2k era, two subsequent complete presidencies and an iPhone rabillion? Well, the first thing to know is that this fossilized rapid restoration monstrosity is somewhat an accident.

Like David Whipple, the man behind meat,to distinguishHe originally launched the hamburger to use as a presentation accessory during the interviews on enzymes and "how things deteriorate". One day he accidentally left the hamburger in a coat pocket. Then years later, in the middle of a move, his wife fell on her - and was surprised at the little thing (visually) over the years. (Although this has made the musk distinct from old cardboard.)
Now it's not the first time that same burger made a title. In fact, back in 2013,Kutv reported first On the thing, in a video that quickly returned semi-viral:
This is not the only practically paleolithic McDonald burger with a profile as high. In Iceland, McDonald's hamburger and fries bounce around the museums since 2009. (Currently, it is housed at theSnotra HouseIn þykkvibær.) And that Burger is special for an additional reason, it is the latest Burger of McDonald's Burger in Iceland. A boss, Hjörtur Smárason, bought the meal just before the McDonald's finish in Iceland closed for good. Rather than eating, however, he did it to science.
"I had heard something about McDonald's never decomposed so I just wanted to know that it was true or not," he said.
He did first at the National Museum of Iceland, but a Danish specialist entered the museum and told the museum that the preservation of the hamburger would be too big. So in 2012, Smárason moved it to theSnotra House, in þykkvibær, where he stayed, preserved as a mosquito to the amber since.
"I think he was wrong," he said. "This hamburger preserves." And for stories really big on the giant of fast food, check these50 Biggest Myths on McDonald Food.
