After the Vice article came out, the self-declared King of Pizza says it made him "famous" for eating pizza. He says that now, "whenever anyone talks about me in the news, I get 'you're our hero! I wish I could do that!'"

But he also gets people saying,"'you're horribly unhealthy and you're gonna die'.'' To which Janssen shrugs and says, "Yeah, we're all gonna die. But I'm gonna die with pizza in my stomach."

Dan has diabetes, but says the only doctor that isn't happy with his diet is his endocrinologist. He claims all of his other doctors tell him: "Your cholesterol is fine. You seem healthy. Keep doing what you're doing."
