(Short version: No burger, no matter how "healthy" the ingredients, of the same size will grow mold, because it dries out too fast. Larger McD's burgers will mold at the exact same speed as larger non-McD's burgers. Hold a teenyburger in an environment where it can't dry out and it will grow mold, McD's or not. Which is to say, there's nothing special about McDonald's food.)
