why but the same burger in ninety nine died on july seventh this is david whipple in his hand is what he claims is the world's oldest hamburger it almost smells yet just as. it's like a stale. little says this burger is unique and not just because it's old there's no rancidity or order to order any bolder fungus that's right this patty and it's been are perfectly intact with full says he saved the burger to show his friends how in zines work to break down food but it never decomposed and so that made me curious could i make a mom of five burger of my own well let's go find out to be clear this experiment is not about mcdonald's versus other fast food restaurants it's fast food vs home made to the disgust of my r.c. colleagues day after day i kept the burger at my desk documenting the changes in its appearance ok so it's been just about a month since i bought a burger and fries and let's take a look at the fries first they look a little bit more shriveled but the color is still there they look about the same now as for the burger itself from an outward appearance you would have no idea

>> burger king. >> oh, it is burger king. not only is it not $800, but it is $1 and a really good deal when you consider you get a defibrilator with it. >> i can't say that word. larry, i love -- >> you are wrong on this. it is brilliant. first of all, they did market research and my kids do this already. they put french fries on their hamburgers. >> they are imaginary kids. >> four of them. count them of the you say anybody can do this, but there is a genius to the person who does the thing that everybody can do. look at andy warhol and the painting of a can of soup. anybody who -- can do that, but he actually did it. he made a lot of money out of it. >> i wanted you to theng -- i thought you said you wanted us to literally look at him. that is morbid. >> i guess i should go to bill. this has has to be the deal of the century for you, right? >> it doesn't make sense. yes, for $1 you get the burger with the fries. most with pay extra to buy the fries and do it themselves. think about the extra money you will have to spend on

. >> you can't taste the burger.ow no if it tastes any different than a regular burger. why are they doing this in the first place? is it more environmentally friendly? >> reporter: there's a more serious point to this which is finding way to produce beef that doesn't take up so much of the world's recourses in terms of land for cattle to graze on and energy. greenhouses are produced as a result of producing beef . the world's population is going up. how are we going to be feed. this is one possible solution. today was a type of prototype. a proof that it could be done. they've done it. it's not juicy. it's very lean. it doesn't have the fat that a normal burger has. it could be a water shed moment. >> what are animal rights groups think of this? is it seen as progressive or a positive? >> reporter: i think a lot of people who are concerned about animal welfare will see it as progressive. this can be produced without having to slaughter any animals. you take cells from a live cow and grow in petri dishes about 20,000

would you serve the more advanced cousin of this burger in modo? >> well, no, that's like asking if we would use a processor from the 1950s in a phone today. and we did make a burger out of what cows eat so just sort of bypassing the cow altogether. i think it has billions of dollars and a long way to go before it becomes successful to the mainstream. >> so, amanda, one of the interesting things you bring up when you say you're a restaurant that focuses on vegetables, is where actually does test tube grown meat fit on that kind of vegetable meat continuum, right? it's not quite an animal. it's grown off an animal but doesn't have the kind of suffering associated with it. doesn't have the feeding process. there is something in it that is almost -- it's not a vegetable exactly, but it's in kind of new category. >> it is, it's in a whole different category and for my restaurant or for people who come, eating meat isn't always an ethical thing. sometimes it's a health thing, sometimes it's a political thing, sometimes it's that's their diet. so it's al
