God's Onion Ring

Bryan Rocco has a hunger for fast food but never thought a Burger King onion ring would almost kill him, NBC 10's Ted Greenberg reported.

"I was eating my lunch on the road," Rocco said, adding that he soon found himself "gasping for air."

“I was coughing. I tried to wash it down with soda. That didn't work," Rocco said. "I blacked out -- must have passed out from choking on an onion ring," Rocco said.

The SUV he was driving jumped the curb and slammed into a tree. But when he came to, the onion ring was gone.

So, after all of this, you may be wondering if Rocco lost that appetite he has for onion rings and other fast food? Not a chance. "We work for Burger King and McDonalds a lot, so they give free food, I eat it," Rocco said, laughing.
