Blimey, what were you doing? Some kind of experiment? Fries are so bad and they stay the same 30 days after in the box, so does this mean that the more perishable a food, the more healthy it is? Remember when we actually eat the chips, we chew and digest it in our bodies, so in our bodies it's definitely not going to stay the same! However, what it breaks down into is another matter, all those fats and oils, could easily stay clogged in our system, so lots of exercise is a must!

Yes, I'm well aware how bad junk food is to our body. However, leaving french fries as is in a box for days is not the same as when people eat it. :-) When we take food into our mouth, the process of digestion begins. Our teeth and tongue are responsible for the mechanical digestion or actual physical break down of food into smaller pieces. Then, after mechanical digestion, food undergoes chemical digestion. Our saliva contains digestive enzymes which aid this process and our stomach secretes gastric juice and other enzyme. All other organs associated with digestion also produce other enzymes. So, digestion is a long and very different process and has a very different outcome.

Hi, French fries is not my favourite junk food. Eat too much french fries is not good for health. SOmemore it is a heaty food,better don't consume too much. I only have Macdonalds french fries once a while.Eat with chilly sauce. I can't eat too much heaty food or else my throat will get pain,then sore throat is coming again. I better stay away from all those junk food. Eat more healthy food is good for our body. I prefer to eat more fruits and vegetables for my daily meal.

IDIOT!! your just like that lady that kept her big mac and fries. Of course it would look the same because its been fried. you forgot to add the digestive enzymes in your tummy to the fries so you will get a more accurate and precise results. When you digest food it gets churned and becomes poop. Things wont rot if there are no decomposers like bugs and worms. That's why there seems to be a lack of change on the fries. human body can last long if you dont know if preserved well. maybe if we fry human bodies? I'm just kidding about the mummy

All the good things in life are bad or fattening, buddy. An occasional box of French Fries will definitely not hurt you much. Just keep doing fitness exercises and mind and soul balancing ones, and nothing can go wrong with you. :)
