They say you are what you eat, and if that’s true, Donald Trump is a big cheeseburger and a side of fries—all-American, larger than life, salty and, for some, a little hard to digest. At a town hall with South Carolina voters, the GOP frontrunner revealed his intense passion for fast food; McDonalds, Burger King, KFC, Wendy’s, Quarter Pounders and Filets-O-Fish... (Filet-O-Fishes?).
