Secret of immortality

Postby expat » Sun Sep 12, 2010 4:17 am

Well it would appear eating at McDonald's is the answer ;D

12 year old burger

Rot proof!

And my children wonder why eating at McD's is once every other blue moon ;D

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

I've never entered a "McDonalds" Restaurant, or eaten one of their Beef Burgers, but I do spy them in my local Supermarket, and although they sometimes look appetising, I always resist the temptation to purchase them, and prefer to make my own meals using good quality (fat-free) Minced Beef (with added onions)... ;)...!
I avoid anything which looks fatty....
..including Ladies queuing at the Cream Cake Counter... ;)... ;D...!

Well, I've always known that they are really bad for me. Now that I've read this, I have no desire to buy another burger from them again.

Kind of a hollow victory, however, as I really like the occasional McDouble at 3am  :-/

I watched that movie, "Super-size Me", and I've not eaten at a McDonald's since.  :-X

Even the microbes won't eat it, eh?

As per when the video came out about the lady smashing the drive through window to get nuggets, I'm ever so hungry for them again. Yum  ;D

The reason why i refuse to eat at any McDonalds restaurant if you can even call it a restaurant. Really makes you think. :o

Working out of town a lot, sometimes choice is decided by our location. Some of the old Mom and Pop Diners can be a deadlier choice than McDonalds.
30 years back I found 12 thumbtacks in the bottom of my chilli dish..
In a restuarant south of Chicago.. after taking two bites out of a hamburger.. a cockroach crawled out of the lettuce and ran up my arm.
I had a Philly Cheese Steak west of Toronto two years ago and ended up in emerge 6 hours later bleeding rectally.
I had a Burito at a bar in Mexico and woke up 4 hours later without my wallet. Burito or Tequila maybe..
Last year I made made a balogna and cheese sandwich at home. Two hours later I sat down and went on line to read the daily news and found out this balogna had been recalled because of salmonela poisening..
Not to mention eating apples sprayed with allar, God forbid.. I would ever take a peanut butter sandwich to work and end up killing someone with it!

My last McD's certainly stalled something for 24 hour and 9 minutes.
Similar condition from start to end... goes in between two buns and comes out between two buns?
