Old McDonald's Burger and Fries

McDonald’s failed to keep customers coming back in Iceland afterĀ anĀ economic crisesĀ in late 2008, soĀ the company was forced to shut down its last branch inĀ October 31, 2009.

What you see in the above photo is theĀ last McDonald’sĀ meal sold inĀ Iceland and it is has putĀ on display at the Bus Hostel in Reykjavik. The meal was bought by a man namedĀ Hjortur Smarason whoĀ donated it to the national museum in Iceland where it was in storage for a year.

The burger and fries sit on display in front of a liveĀ webcam, where people all over the world can watch its slow decomposition.Ā Even after six years the meal has stillĀ not become rotten or moldy.
