Nearly a ton of pumpkin was required to make South Africa’s record-breaking, 28-foot pumpkin pie. The massive dessert was three feet deep and took two days to create, and beat out the previous title holder in Circleville, Ohio, which took 360 pounds of sugar, 795 pounds of pumpkin,  60 lbs. of powered milk, 60 dozen eggs, 75 gallons of water and 400 lbs. of flour to make.

worlds largest meatball Meatball That old Italian-American classic, spaghetti and meatballs, is a favorite from coast to coast here in the U.S. – but not everyone is content with meatballs that can fit on a fork. Matthew Mitnitsky, owner of Nonni’s Italian Eatery in Concord, New Hampshire, set out to break the previous record, set by late night host Jimmy Kimmel, so he could bring the title back to the East Coast. He succeeded with his 222.5-pound meat monstrosity, beating Kimmel’s meatball by over 24 pounds.

Tiramisu may be from Italy, but that hasn’t stopped both Switzerland and France from creating the two largest tiramisu desserts ever made. The 2007 Swiss version, in the shape of the confection’s country of origin, weighed over 1,742 pounds – but the French beat them handily in 2009 with their less artistic, but much larger 2,372 pound dessert, which contained over 4,000 eggs.

Created in 1990 at the Pick ‘n’ Pay hypermarket in Johannesburg, South Africa, the pizza was rapidly consumed in a not-so-orderly fashion by onlookers, who simply tore pieces off the edges with their hands.
world’s largest Lollipop

 largest Lollipop It would take an awful lot of licks to even make a dent in this insanely gigantic lollipop, created in August 2009 in honor of spiritual leader Sri Chinmoy’s birthday. The equivalent of 165,070 regular-sized lollipops, this supersized sucker surpasses the previous record holder by 2,000 pounds, weighing in at 6,706 pounds. It’s 10 feet in diameter, 10 inches thick and 25 feet tall including the stick.

largest Burger world’s largest Burger served at Mallie’s Sports Bar and Grill in Detroit, Michigan, costs $350 and must be ordered 24 hours in advance. The 134 pound slab of meat is served on a 50 pound bun, and naturally, no single individual has ever been able to eat more than a small portion of it.
world’s largest Sushi Roll
world’s largest Sushi Roll There’s nothing bite-sized about this ridiculously large sushi roll, created by martial arts movie star Jackie Chan’s restaurant, G. Sushi. As Chan demonstrated at the opening of a new location in Shanghai, this tightly packed roll of raw fish, rice, vegetables and seaweed is so big, it would take three adult men to circle it with their arms.

World’s Largest  Super-Sized Sandwich
World's Largest  Super-Sized Sandwich It was the sandwich of sandwiches: a 5,440 pound stack of white bread measuring over a foot thick, huge slabs of cheese and meat, and untold amounts of lettuce and mayo. This world record sandwich was made by Wild Woody’s Chill and Grill, in Roseville, Michigan in 2005.
Three months later, cooks in Iran tried and failed to break that record when the crowd started eating their 4,900-foot ostrich meat sandwich before it could be measured.
