The previous Guinness World Record for the Longest Pizza
was 407 meters (445 yards).
Raymond Marshall from the Guinness World
Records was on hand measuring the finished pizza. "For the
pizza to be the longest in the world, it has to be one single
piece, so it cannot be small individual pizzas," Marshall
said.
Proceeds from the project will go to the
Akogo charity. This was founded in 2002 by Polish actress Ewa Blaszczyk
, to help children who suffer severe brain
injuries. The foundation also supports their families - and
aims to fund a new rehabilitation clinic.
Chef Grzegorz Kaszubski said some 3.5 tons of
flour was used to make the dough.
The world record attempt for the was Longest
Pizza in The World
organized by Pizzeria Magillo and
Metro cash and carry.
