  Staff members reported that the project took three weeks of planning in addition to several weeks of designing and building the bag, which proved to be a rather difficult task.

   According to Guinness World Records, the Largest Tea Bag In The World had to be the correct proportions of a tea bag and be able to make tea once dipped in water.

   "Getting the tea was easy," Pereira added. "Our art department guys were very smart and designed several vertical chambers within the bag so that it would keep its shape even when filled with 150 pounds of loose tea."
