The ageless hamburger

Seems like someone at McDonald’s has found a way to defy ageing!!

McDonald's Hamburgers Don't Age

Things that are made from organic material age and decay, especially when they stop being alive. A piece of home-baked bread, say, left on your kitchen counter, will get moldy relatively fast. Lord knows what some ground beef would smell like after a week. But the artist Sally Davies has been photographing one McDonald's hamburger and fries every day for 137 days. They look basically exactly the same.

Day 137:

How can the food sold at McDonald’s not rot away like normal food?  What do they add to it to keep it looking fresh for over 4 MONTHS?!?!

And how can whatever they add to it not adversely affect one’s body?
