A man was left stunned after finding a half eaten McDonald's meal inside the wall when renovating his bathroom.

He's pretty certain the meal, which he found in the plaster, has been there since his home was built back in 1959 - and he says the fries were still "perfectly crispy". He went on to admit he was relieved to see that the paper bag only contained fries, having initially been worried that he'd stumbled across something more sinister. Sharing pictures of the long-discarded dinner via the Reddit forum r/mildlyinfurating, revealed he and his family live close to one of the original McDonald's locations in Crystal Lake. This particular location first opened its doors way back in 1959, the very same year Rob's house was built.

About 22 years ago we filled every wall cavity we could with beer cans when redoing our bathroom and kitchen. Going to be tearing this place up soon can't wait to find them". Speaking with Newsweek, Rob said: "While removing a fixture in the bathroom I noticed a piece of cloth stuck behind plaster and pulled it out to show my wife. It was balled up and we could tell there was something else inside. "When we unwrapped it and found the old McDonald's bag and fries we were very surprised and grateful that is all we found hidden."
