#Mcdonalds 2 for 5 big mac 2015 series

The Netflix series History 101 featured Gorske to start its episode 01 on Fast Food released in 2020. Gorske commented in 2008 that his obsessive–compulsive disorder is what fuels his love of Big Macs, noting he also records when and where he eats his Big Macs in a notebook that he always carries, and that he has kept every burger receipt in a box. Gorske has since started keeping an 'emergency stash' of Big Macs in his freezer for emergencies and snow days. Other days included a 'Snow Day' when McDonald's was unable to open due to snow, a Thanksgiving, days he was traveling and could not find a McDonald's, and various days Gorske had to stay at work past midnight. One of these days was the day his mother died, and he did not eat a Big Mac to respect her request. He claims that since he ate his first Big Mac, there have only been eight separate days in which he did not eat a single Big Mac. On his birthdays, he puts candles in a Big Mac like a cake, and when Christmas time comes around, he treats himself to more Big Macs while his family has more traditional Christmas food. On May 17, 2011, Gorske ate his 25,000th Big Mac at his favorite McDonald's restaurant in Fond du Lac. Gorske claimed that he first tried a Whopper after his friend bet him $5 to do so and that he then spent the money on Big Macs. Gorske also states that he has only eaten one Burger KingWhopper sandwich in his life in 1984 and will never eat one again. In addition, he has a statue of Ronald McDonald in his yard. He met and proposed to his wife, Mary, at a McDonald's in 1975. At first, Don kept all the boxes of Big Macs he ate in the back of his car. He also claims to drink almost nothing but Coca-Cola and, according to Super Size Me, he rarely eats the fries. If true, this would be equivalent to over 4,600 calories and 247 grams of low quality fat daily, for a total of 143,100 calories and 16.9 pounds of fat in one month. He further claims to have eaten 265 Big Macs in the following month, an average of 8.5 Big Macs per day. He then returned two more times that day to consume a total of nine Big Macs the same day he discovered the burger. He purchased and ate three Big Macs at lunch time. Gorske claims that after getting his first car, the first place he went to was the McDonald's on Military Road in his hometown of Fond du Lac on May 17, 1972.
