Will This Palace Burger Decompose?/By Shelley and ET

This is day four on our Palace Burger experiment.

The burger looks a little darker and dryer, not too tasty looking. The fries look pretty bad.  But it doesn’t look like it’s going to decompose- at least not anytime soon.

Unless you think we are off our rockers, here is yet another post about the scientific credibility of the “Happy Meal Project,” this time from the New York Times’ blog, Diner’s Journal.

For the “Happy Meal Project,” a New York artist, Sally Davies, bought a Happy Meal from McDonald’s back in April, transferred it to a china plate, and left it out at room temperature, photographing it periodically, as reported on Eater (You can even watch a video!).  Six months later, the Happy Meal does in fact seem indestructible.

At least our Palace fries are deteriorating faster than the McDonald’s fries.
