While Donald has tried “a couple of different burgers over the years”, none managed to capture his heart like the Big Mac. “I had one Burger King Whopper in 1984 and one Topper double burger in 1984. There are a lot of other burger chains that I have never had the desire to try. I’ll probably be eating Big Macs every day for the rest of my life,” he told the records site.
