science fair project..

[Hide]

I have a science fair project due this wednesday, like always i ignored it and tried to avoid doing it. yeah my mistake. I really need it or my grade will go down. I chose to do it on food, fried food & whats better than Cheeseburgers!! 3 simple cheeseburgers from Jack in the box/Mc donalds/and BK. so i was planning to just leave them in room temp for a month and try and figure out which one would have the least amount of mold (kinda gross) but pretty simple, yet i didnt bother to take the time to do it . Well does anyone have an idea of which one will have the most amount of mold & the least???
or any ideas of what i can do??
HELP PLZ!

I still say the different mints in diet cola is a better choice because it's faster, otherwise it's bulls**t time

Try to convince your teacher to let you change the topic.

Wow that is actually the easiest one I have heard in a while for being a "do my homework for me" question.

Essentaly, meat molds slower then bread, vegitables are prone to mold too. So ignore the meat and go with the larger burger with the most vegitables and more bread.

Then again why would you want to let a burger sit and rot for a month?

I never had to do a science fair project in High school,

You'll just have to try and do one or the other tonight and see what she says tomorrow. For which one molds faster, it depends on what burgers you're using and which one has more crap on it I guess maybe the types of bread too.

EDIT: Listen to Meier

Well, you're in luck. Buy the burgers tomorrow, and just leave them out so they get cold. Don't put them in the fridge or freezer. Make up all your data and you'll be fine. Those things WILL NOT age because they're chock full of preservatives. Just make sure you buy simple hamburgers though.

Welp, not eating Mcdonalds today.

Yeah, I feel pretty grimey because I HAD to pick some up before work. No other fast food places on the way with a drive thru, and we desperately need to go shopping here.

The sad/ funny thing about that pic though is that the old one looks better than the new one.

Collect the nutritional information from each fast-food joint, and compare and contrast the fat content, calorie content, carb and protein content etc. Simples.

Also, throw a taste test in there as well, and what you, and preferably others, think of the burgers themselves.

I'd go with Tallulah on this.

There are commercials on constantly about how Subway is healthy, or about how McDonald's salads are healthy, or about how the new menu at Taco Bell is healthy. So do a little research for yourself -- get the nutritional information and compare them. Find out how much it would take to make a decent meal (as in, one taco ain't gonna do it), compare NI, and present that.

If you really wanted to BS, you could come in with some crap like "I've eaten Taco Bell "Fresco" meals once a day, every day for the last month, and I've lost/gained x-amount of pounds."

EDIT: Unless you meant "this Wednesday" as "tomorrow". In that case, it was due yesterday, and you're screwed.
