If "you are what you eat" is true... 3

… McDonald's must hold the secret ov life. If a Mickey D burger can remain intact for over 20 years, then one who eats only McDonald's could live infinitely. One could also find happiness. Only the pickles disintegrated, so the pickles one would find hirself immersed in would likewise vanish in due time. The key to health and happiness, an abuse ov logic, or just a garbage quote? You be the judge, but i'm inclined to simultaneously believe in the latter two notions.

Why do you spell "of" "ov"?

Burger King recently had an advertising campaign that show the burger getting mold after 30 days on a time-lapse to illustrate that they weren't using chemical preservatives so it doesn't surprise me.

Very false. Whiskey does not keep aging after it's left its fermentation stage. A whiskey that was bottled and sat for 50 years is the same whiskey that was bottled 50 years ago.

You should tell that to virtually every whiskey company on the planet, you clearly have the inside scoop! Think of all that money they'd save by skipping the years/decades ov barrel aging...

I think moisture levels make a huge difference to how fast a given food will go bad from microbial growth. Let any burger dry out fully and it will probably will be pretty stable against spoiling. Might be a different story if you sealed it in a ziploc bag right away to keep all the original moisture in.

"You are what you eat" is just an oversimplification of how the body processes food. If i eat a steak, am I now a cow? Nope, but that saying says 
I will say it does sorta applies to hunters. Hunters sometimes kill predatory animals and eat them. So in this case the hunter is hunting a hunter, therefore "You are what you eat" aka a hunter like the animal they sometimes eat.
I have once wondered if people ate a bunch of preservatives their whole life, would their body "last longer" from it?

On the lowest level you are at least composed primarily of atoms that you originally ate or drank. But yeah the saying is a bit silly.

Good point.
At the metaphysical level, we are all One, therefore eating anything is cannibalism. But its a little too far out even for me.

It’s really not a silly saying. What we eat/drink is what our bodies use as fuel. If you eat garbage, that’s what your body is using as fuel and to grow, heal, etc. no you’re not gonna turn into a cow if you eat steaks. But it’s funny seeing folks on this board....a message board of western culture...poo-poo the saying, when western culture is currently plagued by obesity & other health problems that are a direct result of what is commonly consumed by people in this culture.
People taking sayings literally

this, don't we all supposedly renew every single molecule of our bodies every 7 years or so? you get to choose where (or what) those new molecules are drawn from, but yes, we're a bit more complex than just the sum of what we eat
