"most people" actually most people don't cheat on their spouses, if they divorce it's not always because of cheating. We have 8.1 BILLION people on earth in that scale cheating isn't thaaaat huge

Did he try doing different combinations of the Big Mac? In the one he did 10 years ago, a friend convinced him to eat a whopper 10 years prior to the video 10 years ago, he ate it, didn't really care for it, and went to Mickey Dee's for his Big Mac.
Big macs have gone way down in quality over the last 40 years. He must have really dull taste buds. I quit eating McDonald's years ago. The meat is always so dry at every location. I can make my own burgers at home for the same price with actual good beef and condiments
"When i go, i go" Thats the main reason he looks so healthy at 70. His stress management seems on point. You can be a smoker, have a bad diet, etc- but the main thing that will kill you faster is living a stressed life all the time
@r_z1 that's like saying "the sky is blue, I guess" Many things contribute to stress. Smoking, drinking, etc definitely make things worse but aren't necessarily the root cause. Otherwise, "healthy" people would never be stressed.

Morgan is a good dude … he made that during the whole “super size” craze if you remember … and was asked to make his meals larger … they are no longer doing that because of all the backlash they got. He eats 2 a day he’s undereating at that point
You can tell a difference in quality just by hopping on a plane and going to other countries. McDonald’s is actually delicious outside the states and depending on the country it’s stil priced like McDonald’s should be priced.
Insane to think Big Macs and other fast food has risen far past the price of actual inflation. Not to mention the quality being not nearly as good as it used to be.
He’s in too deep to quit now. I don’t even know what would happen if he were to quit eating Big Mac’s. His body might go into shock. I hope McDonald’s is at least paying Don for all of the publicity they’ve received because of him. I enjoy a Big Mac every now and then but I can’t imagine eating more than one a day every day for decades. Mr. Gorske should be McDonald’s new spokesman, since Ronald McDonald seems to have gone by the wayside.
how so ? a bigmac isn't "healthy" per say, but normal people, like this guy, can eat 2-3 bigmacs every day without it causing some kind of issue, as long as he is getting enough micro-/macronutrients from other sources. yeah humans can survive after eating bread and beef and some lettuce, human genetics are amazing
I'd say genetics is most of it to be honest, a friend from school's family all died young on the male side from heart conditions, so he was extra careful, really healthy, didn't want to risk it, he died of a heart condition really young
A big component is his dietary regularity, his body has become an efficient big mac consuming machine. Eating the same thing everyday can have health benefits in and of itself, regardless of what you eat
