Big Mac creator Jim Delligatti has gone to Big Mac heaven after creating the 540 calorie burger almost fifty years ago. Jim owned a big chain of McDonald's in the Pennsylvania area. He was getting many requests for a BIGGER burger, so he created The Big Mac. McDonalds sells 550 million of them a year! Mr Delligatti ate one a week. He beat all odds.
The greatest lead you'll read all year is in the Washington Post obit for this guy:
