Junk food: delicious, undeniably addictive, and wholly, incomparably… creepy? Here are 5 creepy junk food facts, which may make you less hungry, so you may want to eat that burger now before you proceed on!
- You may have petroleum based ingredients in the fries you’re eating
McDonalds French Fries contain a petroleum based ingredient otherwise known as TTBQH (E319) which is utilised as a preservative. If consumed in high dosages, it can lead to asthma, various skin conditions, and cancer.
2. Microwave Popcorn Can Lead To Infertility
According to the Environmental Protection Agency microwave popcorn contains perfluorooctanoic which is likely to be carcinogenic. On top of it, there are chemicals within it which can cause infertility as well as affect your liver.
3.Coca Cola Can Be Used To Clean Your Toilet.
Thanks to the amount of citric acid inside it. Enough said.
4. Until recently, the bread utilised for sandwiches in Subway contained a chemical known as azodicarbonamide- the same substance which is used to create yoga mats.
And perhaps the creepiest of all…
5. You May Be Eating a 14 year old MacDonald Burger
A 14-year-old McDonald Burger looked exactly the same 14 years later after a man who had forgot his McDonalds Burger in his pocket in 1999, only to found it 14 years later looking virtually like it hadn’t aged. This is due to the high amounts of propylene glycol.
Maybe we should think about that time next time we’re enjoying a BigMac with french fries.It’s a truth universally acknowledged that the scientists working behind these products don’t care about your health, so you should.
What was the creepiest fact for you? Don’t forget to comment and share your views!

My husband died of colon cancer at the age of 46. I’m convinced it was due to his daily McDonalds habit…A sausage biscuit and a large Coca-Cola…McDonalds is a curse word in our home.

I’m really sorry to hear about your experience. Yes I must agree, McDonalds is a curse word and awareness needs to spread about the dangers of it, as it’s not simply fast food it’s edible toxic poison
