Pizza Hut Broke a World Record with a 14,000-Square-Foot Pizza
If you had 68,000 slices of pizza in front of you how many do you think you could eat?
Pizza Hut is just doing the lords work, they recently broke a world record by making a 14,000-square-foot pizza at the Los Angeles Convention Center. It took 13,653 pounds of dough, 5,000 pounds of sauce, 8,800 pounds of cheese and more than 630,000 slices of pepperoni.
They assembled it on the floor of the Los Angeles Convention Center, and used a bank of heaters to cook it from above. It took about 48 hours start-to-finish.
It clocked in at 13,990 square feet. Here's what went into it: 13,653 pounds of dough just under 5,000 pounds of sauce over 8,800 pounds of cheese and more than 630,000 slices of pepperoni.
It wasn't actually a "Pie Day" thing. They did it to promote their Big New Yorker pizza from the '90s, which they're bringing back on February 1st.
Pizza Hut says they made sure the 68,000 slices won't go to waste. They donated all the pizza to charities in L.A.
