Probably better than a real meal made at an restaraunt ? Are you trolling ? Do you know how much preservatives and sugar goes into the food at McDonalds ?

See this video for an idea how long the food at McDonalds takes to rot because of these artificial ingredients:

Also have fun time knowing that each time you visit McDonalds, you are supporting the slavery and killing of intelligent animals just to slap together a cheap as possible meal.

That hamburger was turned into jerky. You could do that to any meat. Preservatives or not

The actual explanation for that video is moisture content, not preservatives / artificial ingredients.

I love this tired old trope.

It doesn't rot because there's no bacteria in it. There's no bacteria in it because it was cooked thoroughly.

Any well-done burger from any restaurant will last a similar amount of time. Try it.

BTW, what animal do they serve is "intelligent"? That one has me curious. The smartest thing on their menu I suppose would be the pork?
