A US man has extended his record for the most McDonald\u2019s Big Macs eaten in a lifetime. Don Gorske, who is now 70 years of age, gained the Guinness world title back in 1999 for his love of Big Macs, and now he\u2019s extended it after eating a further 728 Big Macs according to the award company. This means that he\u2019s eaten over 34,000 Big Macs. He achieved his groundbreaking Big Mac fame as a result of eating nine Big Macs each day, but to maintain his health, he\u2019s recently cut these numbers down. Now, Gorske only eats two Big Macs daily \u2013 one for lunch, and one for dinner. What Gorske had to say about Big Mac milestone When Gorske was asked about his achievements, he said that many people couldn\u2019t actually believe he wasn\u2019t dead. \u201cMany people thought I\u2019d be dead by now, but instead, I\u2019ve been a record holder for my 24th year \u2014 one of Guinness World Records\u2019 longer-running record holders, so that\u2019s pretty cool to me,\u201d the 70-year-old says. Gorske, who is a retired prison officer, has been eating Big Macs since the 1970s when he first tried one. Despite this, he says: \u201cPeople who have watched me eating a Big Mac often comment that I look like I\u2019m eating one for the very first time. \u201cAt that moment, I said: \u2018I\u2019m going to probably eat these for the rest of my life.\u2019 I threw the cartons in the back seat and started counting them from day one.\u201d In other McDonald\u2019s news, a customer went viral after they raged at workers at the drive-thru who told them to park up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>McDonald\u2019s Big Mac record holder breaks another milestone at 70 Guinness World RecordsA 70-year-old man has shocked people worldwide, after celebrating another McDonald\u2019s milestone that\u2019s breaking records.
