World's longest hot dog

The current Guinness World Record was set in Paraguay in July 2011, with a hot dog that measured 203.8 metres (669 ft) in length.

[1][2] An attempt in October 2017 in the town of Flensburg in Germany, where a group manufactured and served a U-shaped hot dog with a length of 218.7 metres (718 ft), was considered invalid as it consisted of multiple pieces of bread and sausages instead of one of each.

In the August 2006 record breaking attempt, the hot dog was manufactured by Shizuoka Meat Producers, and was wound into a large plastic barrel which was easily transported inside a delivery van.

After being topped with mustard and ketchup, the completed hot dog was lifted by the assembled spectators 30 centimetres (12 in) off the conveyor for photos.

After photos and video of the official measurement were completed, the hot dog was cut into sections and the assembled spectators each had a piece.
