28 Biggest Pieces Of Food In The World (2 of 6)

Ice Cream Float

In May 2007, Coca-Cola became the company behind the world’s largest soda float. They whipped this out at that year’s World of Coca-Cola Museum event. This particular float clocked in at 15 feet and housed about 3,000 gallons of ice cream. Again for the number fanatics, they had about 7,200 ice cream scoops full of ice cream in the float along with 2,850 gallons of Vanilla Coke in it.

Mojito

For those unfamiliar with a mojito, it’s a cocktail mixed with white rum, lime & lemon juice, sugar, mint, ice, and sparkling water or club soda. Sound tasty right? Well apparently some people in Italy think so too. They loved it so much that a group of dedicated fans made the largest mojito around.

On July 14th, 2011, an Italian group concocted a 1,300-liter mojito. The process took about an hour to make with several people dumping rum, sugar cane juice, and mint into a massive glass.

Unfortunately, that record didn’t hold as in April 2016, 4-Jack’s Bar and Bistro decided to make their own. Hailing from the Dominican Republic, the restaurant created a beast of a mojito. By the end of it, the mojito was 3,519-litres, taking the team about an hour and 35 minutes to make. Naturally if you can manage to drink the entire thing solo, you’ll have a massive hangover.

Nachos

Nachos are delicious and in most cases people can clear through them fairly easily. This isn’t the case though, as participants at Centerplate at University of Kansas created a massive service of nachos. In 2012, they served nachos in a 80-foot-long trough. In it, there were 4,689 pounds of chips, meat, beans, cheese and pico de Gallo sauce. I presume that Tums were also served on the side.

That record didn’t stand either, as in recent years a team of volunteers in Las Cruces took the record further. In 2018, they unofficially added a few extra hundred cheesy chips to this dish, making the platter weighs in at 5,039 pounds. This platter was created as part of the city’s Noche de Nachos event.

Sweet Tea

In 2010, restaurant chain Chick-Fil-A started this record by creating a 1,140-gallon cup of sweet tea with ice. That record got broken massively in 2016 when Summerville, South Caroline created the same beverage, but clocking in at 2,524 gallons.

They did this by using 210 pounds of loose leaf tea and 1,700 pounds of sugar. Summerville is still the record holder and declared itself as the “Birthplace of Sweet Tea.”

Pizza

You can’t go wrong with pizza and many people agree with that. Of course some agree with it too much. That was the case in South Africa in 1990. Back then, the Norwood Pick ’n Pay Hypermarket cooked a gigantic pizza that weighed almost 27,000 pounds. That record held until 2012, where an Italian team with chef Dovilio Nardi broke the record by making an even larger pizza.

This new pizza had a surface size of 13,580.28 square feet. It was dubbed “Ottavia” Roman for “eighth son.” Out of the other foods on this list, this one is probably the healthiest. It’s gluten-free. Why? Because it was made specifically to highlight celiac disease.
