SHU's french fries are safe!

In the Morgan Spurlock lecture, I was reminded of the McDonald's french fries incident, so I decided to test out SHU's french fries, luckily for me, four days after the lecture on Oct. 10, SHU had fries...I took some and placed it in a dessert box and kept it in my room.

After four days in my room, the fries were still whitish/yellowish, no changed occurred, I was getting worried...but to my relief, nine days later, when I came back from the Fall Break on Oct 18, mold started growing on it, it started to decompose.

This is great because it showed that the ingredients of the fries were not too artificial. There were not many preservatives in SHU french fries. Yeah SHU fries!

***Caveat: Below is the picture of the moldy fries.

Notice the green fuzzy spots!

Brilliant, Mike! The only problem: the picture is making me queazy. I don't think I'll be eating fries any time soon!

hey Evan, just imagine it sitting in your room, I still have it, I'm about to throw it away sometime soon, hopefully! :)

Ewww. Um, good job? How scientific...

As an RA, I'm going to have to ask that you get rid of them--for health reasons! That's really unappetizing. Really.

I just got rid of it Karissa, and I'm still alive!

That's a great endorsement for SHU fries. Maybe you should do a story for the Setonian.

Hey Nancy, I don't know if this is "important" (newsworthy), on the other hand, I think it's pretty "interesting," thanks for the feedback. :)

I did my own little experiment with McDonald's french fries and found that mold did start about a week after I let them sit and now two and a half weeks later I have about 4 different colors of mold in different spots forming. There are still quite a few spots that look as good as they did when I purchased them. I will hold onto my project until it becomes a health hazard to see exactly what happens completely to the fries.
