Lee et Mary Humphrey, deux britanniques de 84 ans, se disent très fiers d'être de fidèles clients du restaurant McDo de la petite bourgade Eastbourne en Angleterre. Cela fait 17 ans qu'ils mangent chaque jour le même menu chez McDo!
MCADDICTS HAVE BEEN `LOVIN IT' FOR 17 YEARS
According to medical science one of the keys to a long life is to eat a healthy, balanced diet. Fast food fanatics Lee and Mary Humphrey seem to make a mockery of such advice, as the 84-year-olds have eaten the same McDonald's meal every day for the last 17 years.
The couple have proved they really are `lovin it' by eating at their local branch in Eastbourne, East Sussex every day at 11am for the past 17 years.
Over the years the pair has scoffed the same meal - a double hamburger each with a shared large fries - more than 6,000 times. These McNuts even moved house two years ago so they could be within walking distance of the restaurant.
The couple first "fell in love" with the restaurant after their arrival to Britain from Canada in 1990. So familiar faces are their faces to staff that work at the branch that they have their own table and the food is normally waiting for them when they arrive.
The couple's burger addiction has notched up an impressive, based on current prices, £20,000 spend.
Making up the bulk of their diet, with the odd bowl of cereal and ice cream thrown in, the pair consumes a gutbusting 13 grams of fat / 320 calories from the cheeseburger and 26 grams / 540 calories from the fries.
Despite this they claim to be ``fighting fit'' for their age and walk three miles every day.
Having vowed never to dine out anywhere else it doesn't look like the couple plan to stop anytime soon. Mrs Humphrey comments: ``I think it's the best restaurant in the world, and we would never go anywhere else''.
