The Guinness World Record Hershey's Holds

Breaking a world record is a feat that many strive to accomplish. Since Sir Hugh Beaver, the managing director of the Guinness Brewery, founded Guinness World Records in 1954, people from all around the world have put their minds and bodies to the ultimate test to achieve things that have never been done before.

As you can imagine, a lot of these world record titles fall within the food category. Over the years, people have grown massive crops, eaten copious amounts of a single food item over a specified time period, and whipped up some of the most expensive and elaborate meals you can think of in an effort to obtain the title of record holder. For example, the heaviest carrot ever recorded weighed over 22 lbs. The longest noodle measured nearly 10,120 feet long. The most McDonald's Big Macs ever consumed in one person's lifetime is just about 30,000 (via Insider).

Now, imagine feasting your eyes — and possibly your taste buds — on something so big, so beautiful, and so sweet. Picture a piece of smooth, rich chocolate so gargantuan, it would probably take years to finish.
