The Biggest Meals in the World














Welcome to our new post! In this article, I will present to you some of the largest meals in the world. No dragon will leave the table hungry after devouring one of these dishes, or at least attempting to. Get ready to discover gigantic versions of these delicious dishes and amaze your friends with these interesting facts.







The Largest Burger


This record was set in Pilsting, Germany in 2017. The world's largest burger weighs 1,164.2 kilograms. To accomplish this feat, 300 people and a crane were needed.

And the largest burger available for sale is from Mallie's Sports Grill & Bar in the United States. This burger weighs over 800 kilograms and costs around 20,000 dollars! I will leave the link to Maillie's Sports Grill & Bar website in the description. If you dare not to try the Guinness colossal version, there are also regular versions of the burger. To prepare a burger as gigantic as these, they ask for a 72-hour advance order.




The Largest Pizza in the World


We've all heard of Pizza Hut, but did you know they hold a world record for producing the largest pizza in the world? This pizza has 6.19 kilograms of dough, 1.81 kilograms of sweet marinated sauce, 3.99 kilograms of cheese, and 630,496 pieces of pepperoni.

As if this wasn't already amazing, Pizza Hut has not one, but two world records. Their first world record is for delivering a pizza at the highest altitude (19,341 feet), delivering a pizza to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.

The largest pizza you can eat in a restaurant is located in Los Angeles at Mama's and Papa's restaurant. Their pizza is square and measures 1.37 x 1.37 meters. To prepare it, a 24-hour advance order is recommended, and its price is 400 dollars.




The Longest Sushi Roll in the World


You're probably thinking that this record belongs to the Japanese, and indeed it does. In 2016, 400 people helped produce a sushi roll that was 2,844.61 meters long. This feat was accomplished by the executive committee of the Tamana Otawara Festival.

The largest sushi roll you can order in a restaurant is at Umewaka restaurant in Japan. This enormous sushi weighs 6 kilograms and has a diameter of 20 centimeters. Japanese cuisine lovers are probably eager to try this wonder, but the price of this gigantic version is around 100 dollars.




The Biggest Paella in the World


The record belongs to the company Galbis Paellas Gigantes, which in 2001 broke its own record by creating a paella with a diameter of 21.5 meters. This enormous paella fed 110,000 people, 10,000 more than their previous record. 80 chefs were part of this challenge.

Now you're probably wondering: why did they try to break their own record? They did it because they were sponsored by a detergent company to break their own record and clean everything with just 1 liter of their detergent. I couldn't find on the internet whether they also achieved the cleaning challenge, but if they did, it's a double record.

To accomplish this feat, they used these incredibly large quantities: 6,000 kilograms of rice, 12,500 kilograms of meat, 5,500 kilograms of vegetables, 1,100 liters of oil, 15,000 liters of water, 195 kilograms of salt, 1 kilogram of saffron, and 28 kilograms of spices.
