French bakers beat longest baguette world record
French bakers beat longest baguette world record
A 140.5m (461ft)-long baguette baked in the Parisian suburbs has beaten a previous record from Italy in 2019.
This is so useless.
Is this just for fun?
Stop having fun.
Meh, that's a lame take. They gave the bread to the homeless. I don't see a downside here if it ends with something productive.
Do they do this weekly now? No? Well this is just to avoid bad press. The goal was not food for the homeless. You do not need a world record for that. Selling was not an option because of hygiene
I found a pic for those interested -

Thanks !
they also show it on a video in the article
I'm imagining a concrete mixing truck filled with dough, feeding into another truck with an oven with rollers. The dough gets piped into the truck, formed into a tube of dough, rolls through the oven, and extruded from the truck as bread. One of those big Drs office paper rolls is hooked to the bumper to make a barrier between the pavement and the bread.
That about right?
