If you need another reason to kick the junk food habit this should do it.
  如果你想要找一个理由让你戒掉垃圾食品,这条新闻可能会帮上忙。
  A Utah man has unearthed 1 a McDonald's hamburger he bought in 1999 - and the sandwich looks exactly the same as the day it was first flipped 2.
  一位来自美国犹他州的男子发现:他于1999年在麦当劳买的汉堡,现在看起来跟刚买时几乎毫无差别。
  David Whipple kept the fast food meal for a month to show friends how the preservative-packed hamburger would keep its composure.
  大卫-惠普尔原本打算将这块汉堡保存一个月,来向他的朋友证明防腐剂是如何保存汉堡使其不变质的。
  But he forgot about it, finding it two years later in his coat pocket and then he decided 3 to continue the bizarre experiment.
  但不久后他忘了这件事,直到两年后才在大衣口袋里找到这个汉堡,于是他决定继续这个古怪的实验。
  However, even he was shocked to see that the hamburger still looks the same a whopping 14 years later.
  然而,14年后汉堡仍看起来和刚买时一样,这样的结果使他十分震惊。
  'It wasn't on purpose,' Whipple told TV show 'The Doctors,' of his decision to keep the burger for such a long time.
  “我不是有意做出这样的决定,将汉堡保存这么长时间的”,惠普尔在电视节目“医生” 中谈到。
  ‘I was showing some people how enzymes 4 work and I thought a hamburger would be a good idea. And I used it for a month and then I forgot about it.’
  “我当时只是想向朋友展示酶类是如何产生作用的,我觉得用汉堡可能效果不错。而且我本来只打算保存一个月,但后来压根忘了这件事。”
  'It ended up in a paper sack in the original sack with the receipt in my coat pocket tossed in the back of my truck and it sat there for, I don't know, two or three months.'
  “后来我在放在卡车后备箱的大衣口袋里发现了这个汉堡,它原封不动地被装在纸袋中,发票也还留着,在后备箱里放了大概有2到3个月。”
  'It ended up in a paper sack in the original sack with the receipt in my coat pocket tossed in the back of my truck and it sat there for, I don't know, two or three months.'
  “后来我在放在卡车后备箱的大衣口袋里发现了这个汉堡,它原封不动地被装在纸袋中,发票也还留着,在后备箱里放了大概 有2到3个月。”
  He said his coat ended up in the coat closet of his Logan, Utah, home.
  他说之后这件大衣被挂在他位于犹他州洛根市家中的衣橱里。
  'My wife didn't discover it until at least a year or two after that,' he said. 'And we pulled it out and said "oh my gosh. I can't believe it looks the same way."'
  “我的妻子直到一两年后才发现这个汉堡,” 惠普尔说,“当把汉堡拿出来时我们惊呼 ‘天呐,简直不可思议,它看起来与刚买时一样!’”
  The burger had no signs of mold, fungus 5 or even a strange odor, the show's hosts said. The only thing that had changed over the years was that the pickle 6 had disintegrated 7.
  汉堡上并没有任何的菌斑甚至是奇怪的气味,唯一的变化是夹在中间的酸黄瓜分解了。
  Whipple, who still has the original receipt for the burger, said he now shows the sandwich to his grandchildren to encourage them to eat healthily.
  惠普尔仍持有当时买这个汉堡的发票,他说现在他可以证明给他的孙子孙女看快餐的问题,并鼓励他们吃得健康一点了。
