URDB Does Food (Often In Fact…)

I can’t help it, I love the Universal Record Database, a group of wacky people that help others from around the world set any world record the wish. Maybe my adoration is because my first introduction to them dealt with a live, world record event based solely on food: piles, mounds, stacks, and pieces of it. I saw the world’s longest cupcake kabab, the most tortillas tossed and the tallest s’more. The second time I wrote about the URDB was for a Time Out New York feature, in which all but one of the record setters were using food (Tabasco, sugar, chocolate, and wine, or at least a wine bottle). So, imagine my glee when they produced a food themed episode of their new video segment, The URDB World Record Show. Watch this episode and find out who peeled a banana the fastest, the largest spam cattle herd, who made the largest Lucky Charms beard, and more.
