Man still hungry after eating record 30,000th Big Mac

A Wisconsin man who already holds the Guinness World Record for eating the most Big Macs just chowed down on his 30,000th combo of two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun.

Don Gorske, 64, told The Post on Sunday that he has been eating two McDonald’s Big Macs every day for the past 46 years – and the only thing he wants to do in retirement is shove even more of them into his mouth.

“I love the patties, I love the sauce, I can’t get enough of it,” Gorske, 64, said two days after eating his 30,000th Big Mac at a local McDonald’s near his Fond du Lac, Wisc. home.

“I’m trying to get to 40,000, and that’ll take me another 14 years,” said the retired prison guard.

Gorske – famously featured in the 2004 documentary “Super Size Me” because of his obsession with the 563-calorie, fat-laden sandwiches – insisted that his health is great.

“I’m healthy as a horse. I weigh 190 pounds, and my cholesterol is 165,” he said. “I’m better than normal.”

“I’m trying to get to 40,000, and that’ll take me another 14 years,”

Good luck with that...................

More power too him!

If he eats 4 a day he can whittle it down to seven years - and he can die happy at 71.

Maybe he’s like the old guy that eats two dozen boiled eggs every day and still has normal cholesterol numbers.................

[Mr. K]

that’s 2 a day for 41 years

McDonald’s food realy sucks. This guy has an undiagnosed mental problem.

"Maybe he’s like the old guy that eats two dozen boiled eggs every day and still has normal cholesterol numbers................."

Eggs, and dietary cholesterol generally, are not the evils they've been portrayed as. Recommendations are finally coming around to try to reflect the actual science. Even the FDA has dropped its recommendation to avoid eggs.

I don’t care whether it’s healthy. I just wonder, of all the things he could choose to obsess over, why a Big Mac? He chose poorly.

[Red Badger]

Would somebody please tell my wife!

She hardly ever has eggs in the house!...................

Ah yes, more evidence of our ignorance of gluttony in society.

Anyone know the cost of 30,000 Big Mac’s?

[VA_Gentleman]

I concur. I highly recommend reading the book “The Cholesterol Myth.” Sugar is the leading cause of heart/coronary disease, not cholesterol.

Good for him

[Nifster]

Because he burns more calories than he takes in
