Donald A. Gorske (born November 28, 1953) is an American world record holder known as the 'Big Mac enthusiast'. He is best known for having eaten 30,000[1] Big Mac hamburgers from the U.S. fast foodchainMcDonald's in his lifetime, winning him a place in the Guinness Book of Records. He claims the Big Mac constitutes 90-95% of his total solid food intake. A resident of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, he is featured in the documentaries Super Size Me (2004) and Don Gorske: Mac Daddy (2005), and is the author of 22,477 Big Macs (2008).
Overview[edit]
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.[2][3] He purchased and ate three Big Macs at lunch time. He then returned two more times that day to consume a total of nine Big Macs the same day he discovered the burger. He further claims to have eaten 265 Big Macs in the following month, an average of 8.5 Big Macs per day. 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 also claims to drink almost nothing but Coca-Cola and, according to Super Size Me, he rarely eats the fries. At first, Don kept all the boxes of Big Macs he ate in the back of his car. He met and proposed to his wife, Mary, at a McDonald's in 1975. In addition, he has a statue of Ronald McDonald in his yard. Gorske also states that he has only eaten one Burger KingWhopper sandwich in his life in 1984 and will never eat one again. 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.
In 2003, Don Gorske ate 741 Big Macs, an average of 2.03 Big Macs per day. Gorske is 6 foot 2 inches tall (1.88m), 185 pounds (83 kg), and claims a cholesterol level of 140. His claimed average daily consumption of two Big Macs amounts to 1,080 calories, according to the nutritional information published by McDonald's;[4] this does not take into account his energy intake from fluids. The USDA recommends about 2,200 calories per day.[5] Gorske consumes mainly calorie-rich food, but he maintains a stable weight by consuming fewer calories daily than the average American. He says his taste buds have always fluctuated in sensitivity, so he often eats a Big Mac without being able to taste it.[6]

Unfortunately, the printed material has gotten lost, so this includes only a scan of the disc.
On May 17, 2011, Gorske ate his 25,000th Big Mac at his favorite McDonald's restaurant in Fond du Lac.[7] 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. 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. One of these days was the day his mother died, and he did not eat a Big Mac to respect her request.[2] 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. Gorske has since started keeping an 'emergency stash' of Big Macs in his freezer for emergencies and snow days.[8] 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.[2]
Gorske ate his 29,000th Big Mac on December 8, 2016.[3] He also maintains that he has no known health issues and has not had reason to visit a doctor. At his doctor visit on April 26, 2011, his first since 1985, his cholesterol level was 156 mg/dl, which is below the average of 208 mg/dl.[9]
On May 4th, 2018, Gorske ate his 30,000th Big Mac.[10]
Gorske worked as a correctional officer at Waupun Correctional Institution for 25 years. He retired in May 2011.[citation needed]
Appearances[edit]
He appeared in the documentary Super Size Me. In the DVD extras for the film, it is revealed he works as a correctional officer. He also makes a cameo appearance in cartoon form in the film.
In 2006, Gorske appeared as a contestant on the game showI've Got a Secret. Celebrity panelist Billy Bean was able to guess the Big Mac as Gorske's food of choice.
On May 25, 2009, Gorske was featured on The Rachael Ray Show.
To congratulate Gorske on eating his 25,000th Big Mac, he appeared on The Kyle & Jackie O Show on May 20, 2011 and Lopez Tonight on May 23, 2011.[11]
The Netflix series History 101 featured Gorske to start its episode 01 on Fast Food released in 2020.

McDonalds is recognised as the world's largest fast-food chain and one of the ways it generates customer loyalty and repeat business is through offering special deals and coupons. These McDonalds offers will typically provide a discount on food, or provide free extras on top of your order, so it is well worth evaluating the range of options.
The various deals can be broken down into coupons or vouchers, which must be obtained and used in accordance with the terms and conditions, along with menu specials, which are actually built into the standard McDonalds menu.

Simply visit the survey link, type in the survey code, and begin the survey, whick takes 2 to 3 minutes.
Applying Coupons in the McDonalds App.
To capitalise on coupons within the McDonalds app, you must first download the app from the relevant store. The app is completely free and is compatible with Android and iOS devices. Once you have downloaded the app, you will need to either register for a new account, or sign in with an existing one.
After logging in, you can find the ‘Deals' page from the main hub. Once it has loaded, you will be able to see a complete list of the coupons that are available. You can redeem a coupon by clicking on ‘Add to Mobile Order' and then ‘Use Deal'. After doing so, you can create your food order, select the restaurant and pay through the app.
McDonalds Menu Meal Deals.
Another way to benefit from deals in McDonalds restaurants is to capitalise on the special offers that are built into the menu. The following McDonalds specials are available without requiring coupons, or special promotional codes. Instead, all you will need to do is place the relevant order within a participating restaurant.
$1-$2-$3 Dollar Menu – Available all year, this is a value menu, which offers $1 any size soft drinks and $2 small McCafé drinks. Additional menu items for $1, $2 or $3 are also available, but these items vary depending on the location. It is common for the $1 options to include cheeseburgers and the $3 options to include triple cheeseburgers.
Happy MealDeal– Often included within the $3 menu, the Happy Meal is aimed at children and provides a combination of either a hamburger or chicken nuggets with fries, a drink, a choice of side, and a toy.
Senior Discount – Customers who are 55+ are entitled to a discount on soft drinks or coffee from the McCafé menu. This offer is not available at all locations, so you should ask before ordering.
2 for $4 Breakfast– Any two breakfast sandwiches for $4, with the choices being the Sausage McMuffin with Egg, the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit, or the Bacon, Egg & Cheese McGriddle. Availability varies from location to location.
Buy One, Get One Free – At times during the year, McDonalds offers a ‘buy one, get one free' deal, or a similar alternative, such as ‘buy one, get one for $1'. This will usually apply to the same menu items as the aforementioned 2 for $5 Mix & Match deal, meaning the choice will include Chicken McNuggets, Quarter Pounders and Big Macs.
When active, these deals are available in the majority of McDonalds locations, with some operating on a nationwide basis. However, restaurants may have the ability to opt out of some deals and certain offers may only be available via the McDonalds app. The best option is to ask a member of staff if the offer is available prior to ordering.
It should also be noted that the McDonalds menu can vary substantially in different parts of the world. Some of the items listed above are exclusive to the United States and will not be available elsewhere. However, most countries will have their own special menu deals and while the options vary, the process for ordering them remains the same.
McDonalds 2 for 5$ Deal.
McDonalds 2 for 5$ Deal – Mix & Match – From time-to-time, McDonalds offers customers the opportunity to buy two menu items for $5, with the options including the Big Mac, 10-piece Chicken McNuggets and the Quarter Pounder with Cheese.
50-Piece Chicken McNuggets Deal.
On rare occasions, for a limited time period, McDonalds restaurants offer a substantial discount on the largest available chicken McNuggets option, providing a box of 50 McNuggets for $9.99. Variations of this deal have also existed, including 50 McNuggets for $10.99 via the McDonalds app, or 40 McNuggets for $9.99.
The various McNuggets deals provide excellent value and the 40 or 50-piece options are ideal for sharing.
The McCafé Drinks Special Offer.
Finally, the McCafé selection includes everything from latte and cappuccino, through to iced tea, hot chocolate and fruit smoothies. The good news is, there are often special offers associated with the McCafé menu, with the most common option being a deal where you get a free McCafé drink for purchasing five drinks of any size from the same menu.
2 For 1 Minecraft Map
This can be an ideal special offer for customers who are visiting McDonalds restaurants in a large group.
2 For 1 Pizza
Some of the other offers related to the McCafé selection are more region-specific, so it is worth checking out what special offers or discounts may be available at the McDonalds restaurant closest to you.
