Em comparação com Hamburguers e batatas fritas comuns.Os “alimentos” testados por Morgan Spurlock foram:•    BigMac;•    Chicken Grill;•    McFish;•    Quarteirão com Queijo;•    Batatas Fritas;•    Hamburguer de uma padaria comum;•    Batatas Fritas de um restaurante comumDestaques para o BigMac ,que durou mais de 3 semanas sem se deteriorar, e para as Batatas Fritas do McDonald’s, que passaram 10 semanas (2 meses e meio) sem se deteriorar. E durariam muito mais, se não fosse o erro do estagiário.Agora, antes de você comer algo no McDonald’s, faça-se a pergunta: “Quanto tempo isso irá durar no meu estômago com tanto conservante artificial?”Se não acredita na experiência, ou tem curiosidade para ver o quanto as batatas durariam, siga o conselho de Spurlock, e teste você mesmo.
