    Exclamation It's a Record: Man Eats 19,000th Big Mac

    His name is Don Gorske, and he pretty much lives on nothing but McDonald's Big Mac sandwiches. In fact, he just hit a milestone of sorts that the public relations folks at McDonald's must love: Gorske just ate his 19,000th Big Mac. (Yes, he keeps track. In a notebook.) He's been doing this since 1972. Here's the part no one can understand: Gorske is 6 feet tall and weighs 180 pounds. His cholesterol count is a healthy 155. He's married to a registered nurse who does not share his culinary passion.


    Even before Gorske hit 19,000, he was already in the Guinness "Book of World Records" for eating the most Big Macs. Gorske, 49, who lives in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, told The Associated Press he eats them because he doesn't know what else to eat. "I'd be clueless," he said, noting that he ate a piece of pizza recently, but it "just wasn't the same. It wasn't my first choice."


    How does he do it and not get fat?

    He only eats two Big Macs a day and a few Cokes. That's it. Nothing else. So he ends up eating much less than the average person. Every time he eats a Big Mac he writes it down in a notebook, which even he admits is an obsessive-compulsive habit. AP notes that attorneys defending McDonald's against a lawsuit claiming its food makes people fat used Gorske as an example of someone who frequently ate fast food but stayed slim. "No matter how bad my day is, everything is always OK when I come here at the end of it and have my Big Mac," Gorske, who works as a prison guard Waupun, Wisconsin, told his local newspaper, the Fond du Lac Reporter.

    I'm betting he isn't married.

    As far as 'the fruit of the month club,' I think this guy is the poster child.

    I seen this guy on TV a few years ago and even his kids do the happy meal thing with him regularly. I LOVE McDonalds, but there is no way I could eat there as often.
    They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Distance and time may separate us but friendship and memories won't.

    All I can say is ewwwwww!! I dont like eating 1 of them from our McDonalds.. let alone 2 a day... YUCK!
    Every day I live I am more convinced that the waste of life lies in the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish prudence that will risk nothing and which, shirking pain, misses happiness as well.
