A 54-year-old man from Fond du Lac, Wis., says his obsessive-compulsive disorder drove him to eat 23-thousand Big Macs in 36 years.
Don Gorske says he hit the milestone last month, continuing a pleasurable obsession that began on 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.
