100-foot, 20-ton cookie baked in N.C.

100-foot, 20-ton cookie baked in N.C.
By Associated Press, 5/20/2003 Article

FLAT ROCK, N.C. — A humongous cookie broke a world record over the weekend before a crowd of 1,500 hungry onlookers.

It took eight hours and a cookie sheet the size of a basketball court to bake the 100-foot, 20-ton chocolate chip colossus. The cookie was baked in an oven bag that released the smells of chocolate and warm, sugary dough when opened.

"It looks like a giant mud pie," said 18-year-old Sarah Fantle.

The curious crowd that braved a steady drizzle for a glimpse of the cookie Saturday soon began nibbling it down to size for $10 a slice. Ten percent of the proceeds will go toward building a craft museum.

Immaculate Baking Co. owner Scott Blackwell and a team of 70 volunteers built the cookie from 6,500 pounds of butter, 30,000 whole eggs and 5,000 pounds of sugar.

Jonathan Collins, a representative of the former record holder, Cookie Time of New Zealand, witnessed the event. Cookie Time set the previous record in 1996 by baking an 82-foot wide cookie.

Blackwell said the record belongs in American hands because the chocolate chip cookie is an American invention.

--------------------

That 100 ft sheet of cookie is ours!! Let's chomp 'em!

I saw on TV. I don't think I would eat this giant cookie. I fear that bugs would fly around and piss off on cookie.

I know, they don't have any damn oven for indoor, but no choice... oh well..

I didn't say the cookie was mine. I said it's ours and that means we can only have a bite or two. PPFFTTTT
