I think if McDonald’s force fed the food down his mouth, there are liable, otherwise not.

I lost ten pounds while working at McDonald's. A Big Mac is less fatty than Quiche Lorraine. And a heck of a lot healthier than foie gras, which is served at fancy restaurants no one is trying to sue for obesity or weight gain. The Brazilian court got it wrong in its ruling in this obesity case. McDonald's didn't make this claimant fat.
