Decades Old McDonalds Wrappers
The article goes on to discuss findings including a donkey grave, historical maps, prohibition-era bottles, and more. Renovation work can reveal historical artifacts, certainly, but sometimes those remnants are especially strange. Today tells the story of Grace and Rob Jones, who began renovations on their 69-year-old home in 2022. When Rob removed a built-in toilet paper holder, he found decades-old McDonald’s wrappers and “neatly preserved french fries.” It was a kind of time capsule, though perhaps not the one they’d have chosen.
Renovations can truly be a journey through time, where the walls and hidden corners of an old home or building hold secrets waiting to be unveiled. These unexpected relics of the past not only add a touch of mystery to the renovation process but also remind us of the layers of history that are often concealed within the structures we inhabit. The Jones’ unusual find of fast-food remnants serves as a testament to the serendipity of such endeavors, offering a glimpse into the culinary preferences and lifestyle of a bygone era, and perhaps prompting homeowners to embrace the unpredictability that comes with the preservation and transformation of their living spaces.
