world's longest cake

Q: How many cooks from the Mediterranean Professional Cooks Union does it take to bake the world's longest cake?

A: More than 285.

On April 15, 2006 in Alanya, Turkey, these 285+ cooks spent 3 1/2 hours piecing together the world's longest cake that was pre-baked up to four days earlier.

When the cake was finally finished it was a meager 16 centimeters wide, but a record breaking 2,710 meters long.

In case you're wondering, it was a banana roll and was cut up and eaten by the onlookers.
