How many Big Macs can you eat or have eaten in your lifetime??

Man says he's eaten 23,000 Big Macs since 1972

Tue Sep 9, 3:24 PM ET

FOND DU LAC, Wis. - A 54-year-old man says his obsessive-compulsive disorder drove him to eat 23,000 Big Macs in 36 years.

Fifty-four-year-old Don Gorske says he hit the milestone last month, continuing a pleasurable obsession that began May 17, 1972 when he got his first car.

Gorske has kept every burger receipt in a box. He says he was always fascinated with numbers, and watching McDonald's track its number of customers motivated him to track his own consumption.

The only day he skipped a Big Mac was the day his mother died, to respect her request.

The correctional-institution employee says he doesn't care when people call his Big Mac obsession crazy. He says he's in love with the burgers, which are the highlights of his days.

I'm unsure which is the more amazing the fact he's eaten 23K big macs......or the fact he's lived to be 54.

I actually got a tip from another food pro recently. He goes to Burger King and when he orders the double whooper he asks for a gets 2 extra beef patties. Didn't know they did it.
