미국 메릴랜드주에 사는 목세공 '댄 얀센'(38)은 거의 매일 14인치(약 36cm) 피자를 두 판을 커피와 함께 먹었다.
10대부터 피자에 빠진 그는 하버드 대학에 진학해서도 피자를 먹기 위해 피자 가게에서 아르바이트까지 했다.
얀센은 "나는 활동적인 사람"이라며 "매일 30~40분씩 자전거 타기를 거르지 않는다"고 밝혔다.
누리꾼들은 "25년간 피자만 먹은 남성, 대박" "25년간 피자만 먹은 남성, 커피와 함께 먹으면 이상할 거 같은데" "25년간 피자만 먹은 남성, 뚱뚱하지도 않네 생각보다" 등 다양한 반응을 보였다.

U.S. ‘pizzatarian’ feeds on pizza for 25 years
An American male claimed that he has consumed almost nothing but cheese pizza and coffee for the past 25 years while remaining healthy, the Baltimore Sun reported on Wednesday.
Dan Janssen, 38, from Maryland, has adhered to the pizza diet ever since he stopped eating meat for moral reasons in his early teens, the Baltimore Sun reported.
The American reportedly hates vegetables.“Nothing to me tastes as good as pizza … Why should I eat a carrot when I can eat pizza?” he was quoted as saying.
Janssen was diagnosed with hereditary diabetes but his health has not been affected by his decades-old “pizzatarian” diet, UPI reported.“I’m active, I ride my bike 30-40 minutes at a time,” he was quoted as saying.
