Fast food can be endlessly comforting. We know it's not really nutritionally sound, but we don't always care. Sometimes it's about convenience, and that quick, cheap hit of salt, fat, and deliciousness on your tongue. When you're craving it, nothing else will do. Whatever chemicals they put in a fast food burger can't be easily replicated at home. It's a specific pleasure, and we're all allowed to give it to ourselves every now and again. So for that reason, it can be something we really look forward to.

But the pleasure has to be immediate. If there's one thing fast food doesn't do, it's keep well. Have you ever heard of someone enjoying "Leftover McDonalds?" Yeah, I didn't think so. Like the rarest flower, a McChicken wilts almost as quickly as it bloomed. So you wouldn't be blamed for not wanting one that's been sitting in the fridge. But one husband didn't quite understand that, or perhaps didn't care. Read on for this outrageous story.
