You may not know the name, but I'm almost positive you're familiar with his most famous creation. Delligatti was a Pittsburgh McDonald's franchisee who created the Big Mac about 50 years ago, and it's been clogging arteries ever since. It was McDonald's first successful attempt at a bigger burger and went national in 1968.
Age 98 (I guess he owed his longevity to eating lots of his products)

In my entire 36 years on this planet, I have not once eaten any beef product at McDonald's--not even a Big Mac. I've eaten a lot of chicken and breakfast items there, but not a single burger. I don't know why, but it just worked out that way.

What does one have to do with the other?

A Big Mac has beef in it. It's a hamburger.

I think he was making a joke about McDonald's hamburgers not actually having beef in them.
