People go to fast food restaurants because the food is affordable and fast. It also adds to the national obesity crisis, but it’s too darn tasty to resist. In fact, establishments like McDonald’s and Burger King feed millions of people around the globe day in and day out. But there are a couple of unknown facts about fast food restaurants that will make you think twice before you order again. Better read this one on a full stomach. We warned you!
McDonald’s Hamburgers Don’t Rot
McDonald’s hamburgers are a lot like a beef jerky. The patty is basically dehydrated moisture so there’s very low risk of it getting rotten. You definitely won’t have to worry about eating an expired burger. Their burgers would just dry out. But since employees know this, you can never be too sure how long your patty has been sitting under the heat lamps.
Drink Dispensers Contain Fecal Bacteria
Thousands of drink dispensers in fast food restaurants have trace amounts of fecal bacteria known as coliform. In small amounts, this form of bacteria won’t make you sick. But the fact that this comes from feces suggests there’s a hygiene issue in fast food places, which would make even the most loyal customer question eating there.
