Big Mac Creator Michael "Jim" Deligatti Dies So Had To Get One To Pay My Respects

As an Italian Canadian I was very proud to hear that the inventor was Italian American that created one of my favorite burgers!  You know I had to get a Big Mac combo out of respect to Mr. Delligatti!  RIP big guy and thanks!!

And, yes!!!  It was super delicious!  I could have eaten another but my thin fame couldn't handle it.  I will have to get another soon.  I don't eat fast food often but every now and then..

Cheers!!
