Title: Fries from 11/17/05
Post by: mini on June 07, 2006, 01:37:03 PM
Some of you may remember me posting a picture a few months ago of some fries that I bought at burger king on November 17, 2005.  I decided to keep them to see how long they would last before they finally rotted away, or if they would ever rot away.  (first sign of mold, they are outta here)

Here was the pic from a few months ago:

Nice, golden brown.

Today:

Still nice and golden brown.  A little on the crunchy side, and no I have not tried one.  I just want to see how long they will last.

that is one of the most twisted "experiments" i think i've seen in my life.  you actually 'just kept them' in your fridge?

Post by: LarryTheCucumber on June 13, 2006, 03:16:49 AM
so you're implying that Burger King fries will halt the ageing process if you eat enough?

:P

Gross Amanda.

I've never had fries around for 7 months, but, I have seen them after a few weeks and there is no difference. WOW, 7 months......that makes me want to NEVER eat fries from there again. I'm sure McD's, Wendys, etc...are all the same.

You should go back to BK and request another order of fries, without salt. That'll force them to make a fresh batch (they pre-salt all their fries). Then see if the non salted fresh batch has the same sort of staying power - it could be the salt is acting as a preservative.

Reminds me of two things....1) Justin....cause he ALWAYS asks for no salt, so they will have to make fresh fries, no matter where we go, and....2) Pastor preached a SS lesson a few weeks ago about the Salt and its preserving power...

I think you should give the fries their own website.
Make sure you keep the pics up to date so everyone can see how "good" those fries are.
Ha ha.
Maybe even give the fries some friends, like some chicken mcnuggets, a twinkie, or even a peep.
That would be cool.

what do you think will remain ageless longer - the Peep or the fries?  I think the fries because the Peep would get dusty. .  . eventually.

who knows Melissa, some foods are so saturated with unatural products that some don't break down in our bodies, they just pass right through.  And sometimes they break down somewhat, only to be absorbed and stored in our bodies, aiding and causing sicknesses and disease.

Ok so get this...I was at work the other morning, and I took the trash out...someone had a Burger King wrapper on the patio and it had some fries on it...there were ants all over the fries, so I picked up the wrapper, and dumped the fries on TOP of the ant bed...and then I threw the wrapper in the trash. So about a week later...I go out there, I think of the fries, and I go to the ant bed and look, and they are STILL THERE....ants cant even get rid of them :o

I should take their picture in the morning...I know they are still there. :roll:

Ok, I FINALLY have new pictures of the old fries.  I am gonna start taking the pictures with the date and time included so we can kinda keep track of them.

Also, if you have tried to add them as a friend on myspace in times past and never got accepted I apoligize.  I have it set up to email me at my main address now, not the old one.  So if you are not a friend, go here http://www.myspace.com/oldfries and add them as your friend!

Now, on to the pictures:

(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/minnesota68/S4200017.jpg)

The glue that holds the box together has finally let go, so heres a "inside shot."
(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/minnesota68/S4200018-1.jpg)

The sad thing is the fries have lasted longer than the box....
(http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y256/minnesota68/S4200019-1.jpg)

You can clearly see the grease stains on the box.  Granted, this may be what caused the box to go downhill in the first place.

Hmmm...  You need to buy new fries, Jeremy.  BK now claims to fry without any trans-fats, so the next ones may not have as long of a shelf life.  Hmmm...  I wonder if it'll make any difference at all, though.

Strange... I was thinking about those fries just last week or so.  Are they still a perfect golden brown? 


When I worked at... um... a local fast food factory, I would sometimes take home scraps from after-breakfast cleanup.  My dogs would eat the sausage and round (real) eggs, but the folded eggs and biscuits were always ignored.  Said folded eggs and biscuits are shipped in already made, frozen, ready to thaw out and serve.  I think my dogs are smarter than a lot of people...

*whew* I was so afraid Mini had abandoned Old Fries. Nice to hear they are alive and well. Err, preserved and well.

That's why they lasted so long.  Fast food fries are embalmed - at 375 for three minutes and fifteen seconds.

Are the fries still around? Should we be planning a 10th anniversary party for them?

I just wonder if taxidermists are aware of such good preservation techniques...

Today.

A day if infamy.

10 years since the fries met the hot oil.

10 years since I bought them, ate a few, and left them to grow cold.

10 years they have set in my offices.

I think I'll throw them a party!

I was wondering if you'd make note of the date....
