A video by a TikTok user with over 3 million views shows what McDonald's ice water contains.The presence of microfibers and debris may be due to the plastic in which the water is contained but also to the iceWater is without a doubt the best drink for our health, the only one we really need.However, this should be as "pure" as possible, ie free of microplastics, for example, but also of other types of contaminants.The video of a user who analyzed a drop of water from McDonald's under a microscope is going viral on TikTok (with more than 3 million views).User, @closeintel, who posted the video on July 1, often analyzes different drinks under a microscope to see what they really contain.In this case, he took a drop from a glass of ice-cold McDonald's water, after a request from several followers who, under the previous posts, asked him to analyze the water sold in the famous fast food.Well, the microscope revealed the presence in the water of small "microfibres" and "debris".In particular, the presence of microfibers, explains the author of the video, were "predictable" given that the water is served in a plastic cup with lid and straw.@closeintel hypothesizes instead that the presence of "debris" comes from the ice and some comments below the video seem to confirm this idea, two users for example wrote:I used to work at McDonald's and they never cleaned the ice cube area.You're lucky you didn't get water from my old McDonald's because they NEVER cleaned their ice machine.Then there are those who even testify to having felt bad just after drinking McDonald's water:I had severe diarrhea from drinking McDonalds water years ago.To those who ask him if it is therefore not recommended to order water from McDonald's, the author of the video correctly replies that the one analyzed was the water of a specific store and that the situation may not be the same elsewhere:It really depends on the location, so it's hard to tell… your water may be completely different from mine.But I heard it's best to just order without ice ..McDonalds Water!#undermicroscope #microtok #microworld #microscopicview #microscopic # 🔬 #underthemicroscope #microplastics♬ Runaway by Kanye Piano - Henry CantuIt is not the first time that the well-known fast food chain has found itself at the center of attention due to the "quality" of the food or drink it offers.You will surely remember the Mc Donald's sandwiches found perfectly intact after many years.Find a McDonald's cheeseburger after 5 years and it's still intact (but that's nothing new)Follow us on Telegram |Instagram |Facebook |TikTok |YoutubeYou will receive by email the news on sustainability, nutrition and natural well-being, green living and sustainable tourism from the most widely read online magazine in Italy on these issues.10 things to know if you leave for the MaldivesThe 5 essential tools for plant careCompostable packaging: the myths to dispel
