During what he dubbed the “first ever McMarathon,” the YouTuber visited every McDonald’s restaurant in London in one day, eating a different meal at each location. “The idea is simple: to hit every McDonald’s restaurant in London in one day, trying a different dish at each and seeing if by the end I’m going to be lovin’ it or loathin’ it,” he said. **Read More:** [Man Stopped by Police in England for Driving to McDonald’s With Sheep in Backseat](http://time.com/3988333/animals-sheep-mcdonalds-england-britain-police/ "undefined") Ware started the day by eating seven different [Mickey D’s breakfasts](http://time.com/4053832/history-egg-mcmuffin-mcdonalds-breakfast/ "undefined"), gorging on everything from pancakes to a breakfast burrito. He then moved on to the regular menu, including chicken McNuggets and burgers, before starting to run out of steam during his 22nd stop. “You know you’ve been to too many McDonald’s when you’re seriously considering ordering the Filet-o-Fish,” he said at store 29. Finally, after just over 17 hours and approximately £90 ($130), Ware was able to complete his citywide [fast food](http://time.com/3942913/fast-good-chain-rankings/ "undefined") tour. “I’ve learned about parts of London I didn’t know, foods I didn’t know, and areas of my body I didn’t know could feel pain,” he concluded.
