What is your favorite food? Maybe pizza, or tacos?
Now, do you think you could eat that same food every day for the next 50 years? Well, that is exactly what one man in Fond du Lac has done.
Don Gorske ordered his first Big Mac from the McDonalds on South Military Road in Fond du Lac on May 17th, 1972, and with the exception of 8 days, has had one every day since. This is the third milestone Gorske has reached.
The first was 30,000 sandwiches eaten, which was achieved in 2018, and in December of last year, he surpassed 32,672 Big Macs eaten, which officially made him a world record holder.
That record burger equated to over 6,500 pounds of meat, 65,344 slices of cheese, and nearly 18 million calories consumed. Gorske has stated that if he wasn’t so physically active, he would not have been able to keep up this trend for as long as he has.
