The onions are in fact "recon" which is to say reconstituted from dried. Its fairly hilarious when somebody does it with warm water since the onions turn pink. Doesn't hurt them any they're just pink. Interestingly the quarter pounder onions are "real" which is to say fresh.
Of course everything I know about the inner workings of McD's is from the 1 month I worked there in 1995. The burger patties are salted just after they finish cooking, I can see how that would dramatically slow the rate of mold or rot or whatever. The rolls would molder normally though as would the lettuce, mold grows on cheese too. The hamburgers however are just a roll, patty (same patty as a Big Mac), mustard, ketchup and 2 pr 3 pickles I forget exactly. When I worked there I used to amuse myself by seeing how many pickles I could get on to a hamburger without somebody catching it. I once sent one out that had more pickles than meat. It didn't get returned... -Curt Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2013 13:29:15 -0400 From: Mitch Haley <m...@voyager.net> To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] OT - Sondy Tale Message-ID: <5290e5eb.5000...@voyager.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed WILTON wrote: > Doesn't a Big Mac have lettuce, tomato, pickle and all sorts of other > stuff on it?

Best as I can remember it, no tomato. Pickles are, well, pickled in brine and vinegar. Cheese is already moldy.
