70-year-old has eaten over 34,000 Big Macs in his lifetime: ‘People thought I’d be dead by now’

He’s lovin’ it.

One man has eaten more than 34,000 McDonald’s Big Macs in his lifetime — and even broke his own record.

Don Gorske, 70, has extended his Guinness World Records title for the most Big Mac burgers eaten in a lifetime after eating 728 additional Big Macs throughout 2023.

He now stands at 34,128 Big Macs.

“People who have watched me eating a Big Mac often comment that I look like I’m eating one for the very first time,” Gorske said.

One Big Mac — which is made up of two beef patties, Big Mac sauce, pickles, lettuce, onion and American cheese, sandwiched in a sesame seed bun — contains 590 calories.

Surprisingly, the retired prison officer hasn’t had any health issues from the consumption of all these burgers.

“Many people thought I’d be dead by now but instead I’ve been a record holder for my 24th year – one of Guinness World Records’ longer-running record holders, so that’s pretty cool to me,” he added.

“Out of respect to my mother, from 1973 to 1981, I ate one non-Big Mac meal a day because she was worried about my health. On April 1, 1981, she let me relinquish that promise when she said: ‘If they haven’t killed you by now, go ahead.’”

To stay healthy, he walked six miles per day and ditched the fries that came with his order.

“I’m healthy as a horse. I weigh 190 pounds, and my cholesterol is 165,” Gorske, from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, told The Post in 2018. “I’m better than normal.”

Under 200 is considered to be good cholesterol levels, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

Gorske was first awarded the Guinness World Records title in 1999.

He had his very first Big Mac almost 52 years ago in May 1972 and didn’t look back.

“In that moment, I said: ‘I’m going to probably eat these for the rest of my life.’ I threw the cartons in the back seat and started counting them from day one,” he told Guinness World Records.

Ever since that life-changing day, Gorske has kept a record of every Big Mac he’s eaten, even keeping all the containers and receipts.

He’s so well-known at his local McDonald’s that they even have a photo of him on the wall — and even proposed to his wife Mary in the parking lot.

“She has put up with a lot of obsessive compulsive things I do and hasn’t let my Big Mac thing get to her,” he shared.

Gorske started off eating nine Big Macs per day, but now has cut it down to two: one for lunch and one for dinner.

Since retiring, he stopped driving himself to McDonald’s every day and instead buys them in batches twice a week. According to the record-keeping company, Gorske will eat a fresh Big Mac when he picks up his order and will microwave the rest at home when he’s hungry.

He doesn’t eat much else, either.

Gorske even tried a Whopper from McD’s competitor Burger King once in 1984, and decided he would remain loyal to the burger from the Golden Arches.

“When I like something, I stick with it all the time,” he told Guinness World Records.

Gorske skips breakfast and, besides Big Macs, will only eat small snacks at night such as ice cream, a fruit bar or potato chips. He also used to love lobster, but hasn’t had it in over 28 years.

“If I had a dollar for every time I was told where to stick my Big Macs, I could have retired 10 years sooner,” he quipped.

Gorske’s eating exploits were featured in the 2004 Morgan Spurlock documentary “Super Size Me.”

Meanwhile, celebrity chef Curtis Stone recently told Fox News Digital it is “probably a good idea” for McDonald’s to put a “health warning” on its Double Big Mac.

“You can eat fast-food once in a while,” Stone said. “That’s up to you, of course. I would just be careful with it.”
