Recipe for Success - Raw materials and ingredients for "World's Largest Gluten-Free Pizza":
-- 9.9 tons of Schar gluten-free flour mixed with 2,480 gallons of water
-- 5 tons of tomato sauce
-- 4.4 tons of mozzarella cheese
-- 1,488 pounds of margarine
-- 551 pounds of salt
-- 275 pounds of parmesan cheese
-- 220 pounds of lettuce
-- 55 pounds or vinegar
-- 298 gallons of yeast
Covering an area of nearly one-third of an acre and with a circumference of more than the length of football field, the pizza measured 131 feet in diameter and weighed in at 25.6 tons (51,257 pounds). The NIPfood chefs baked gluten-free dough and raw materials in special equipment, currently not on the market, containing thermal lances with temperatures registering between 300 deg and 500 deg Fahrenheit.

You make a pizza with ground beef, onion and jalapenos. Then when it's out of the oven, you top it with shredded lettuce, fresh tomatoes and some sour cream.
In the interest of weight loss and health improvement, I no longer eat pizzas like this. I sure the hell miss it though.
