Say Cheese!!

We lost a Wii remote about two weeks ago.  I was inspired to search for it one Sunday afternoon.  Remotes are usually swallowed by our couch.  I flipped the reclining sofa over and was horrified !  The amount of food, crumbs, wrappers and general EWWWW was hard to take, plus the couch had lost a bolt and popped a spring.

My most disturbing find was a piece of McDonald's cheese with bacon attached which was perfectly in tact and probably about 3 months old.  No mold, no interesting colors, no decay.
It really scared me on many levels.

I found a non working Wii remote buried within the frame of the sofa.  There were multiple Lego pieces, a Polly Pocket shoe, some pennies, congealed gummie bear vitamins, Cheerios, hairbands, and so on.  I decided to the scrub the couch insides with a bucket of hot, soapy Pine sol, popped the spring back in place and secured the bolt.    I vacuumed and vacuumed, repulsed at what food items and and tumbleweeds of pet hair were flying by me.

Why must my children throw trash and carrots behind the family room couch?  Twelve shriveled carrots to be exact.  Back to the Mickey D's cheese.  What is it made out of......plastic?  Rubber?  Chemicals?  I know fast food is not healthy and I rarely feed it to my kids.  I worked at Burger King many years ago and learned ALL about shelf life.  I am morbidly fascinated by this 
cheese.
