Remember that really old McDonald’s Happy Meal?

You know the one. It’s on display at The Bridge Chiropractic and Wellness in Papillion.

On the second anniversary of its purchase date, the cheeseburger and fries still looked fresh enough to eat. Maybe.

Well, the fast food meal is still going strong. It marked a milestone birthday last month: 5 years old.

And, for the most part, it still looks like it came straight from the drive-thru. The shriveled, lone pickle on the cheeseburger has seen better days, and the ketchup is more brown than red. But the bun, patty and fries look the same.

Andrew Rivera, director of the practice, purchased the burger and fries as a way to promote healthy eating. He’d seen the experiment conducted elsewhere and decided to give it a try.

The meal, displayed in a glass case, survived its first year mold-free. Rivera said he wasn’t shocked to see it last another four years.

“Isn’t that crazy?” he said. “It’s funny. We have it here at the office, and it’s a center of attention.”
