Whether they care to admit it or not, just about everyone loves fast food. So, is it really any surprise that this is also true of our animal counterparts? Not really.
And even in a place like France, which is renowned for its world-class fine dining culture, people, and as you will see in this video, animals, are not above enjoying the simple pleasures of a meal from American fast food titan McDonald's.
However, we think that the French goose in this video more than just 'enjoys' McDonald's. Otherwise, why would he bother to steal someone's McDonald's meal and then try to get away with it like he just stole a Mega Millions winning lotto ticket?
As this bizarre, and quite frankly, hilarious video shows, McDonald's is hard to resist.
Deep in the suburbs of northern Paris, a man, Calvin Moreau, was just trying to enjoy his happy meal when he started recording a goose waddling towards him to seemingly investigate what was in his McDonald's to this video's comments section, Mr. Moreau attempted to talk to the bird in French as he grew suspicious that the bird had nefarious intentions regarding the contents of his McDonald's bag.
According to the video, Mr. Moreau told the thieving bird, 'Stop that. Just because you're bigger doesn't mean you're smarter!' The next thing the Frenchmen knew, the bird had taken off with the paper McDonald's bag wrapped around their neck.
This video had many people wondering: Can birds eat French fries? It's a good question. After all, these salty, delicious snacks are a favorite of many people all over the world. And a lot of people do enjoy feeding birds. So, why not give them French fries?
Obviously, it's easy to give a bird a French fry, and it's just as easy for them to scarf it down. But is it actually good for them?
The truth is, yes and no. French fries are not toxic to birds per se because they are mainly composed of carbohydrates and do contain some vitamins and minerals.
However, French fries, especially McDonald's French fries, contain a lot of sodium and preservatives, which are detrimental to many animals', including birds, digestive systems.
As such, if you see a bird approaching your bag of McDonald's, you should keep it away from them at all costs.
