  World's Finest sets world record with 12,000-pound chocolate bar

  

  Here's a recipe  for a world record: 1,200 pounds of almonds, 5,500 pounds of sugar, 2,000 pounds of milk powder, 1,700 pounds of cocoa butter and 1,400 pounds of chocolate liquor.
  
  World's Finest Chocolate put it all together and what they made was a record for the world's largest chocolate bar. It weighs more than 12,000 pounds and measures 21 feet long and almost three feet high.
  The Chicago-based company plans to take the chocolate bar on tour to schools nationally help educate families about proper nutrition, using the candy bar as an example of ... portion distortion," according to CEO Eddie Opler.
  
  Verified by Guinness World Records, the chocolate bar easily topped the previous record, of 9,722 pounds, set by an Armenian company a year ago.

  World's Biggest Chocolate Bar Created to Encourage Good Nutrition

  

  The creators of the world's biggest chocolate bar say their giant slab of calories can help teach  school students about the importance of good nutrition, the Chicago Tribune reported Wednesday.

  The 12,000-pound chocolate slab -- officially recognized by a Guinness World Records official as the largest ever made -- stands 3-feet high and 21-feet long.

  It contains a whopping 1,200 pounds of almonds, 5,500 pounds of sugar, 2,000 pounds of milk powder, 1,700 pounds of cocoa butter and 1,400 pounds of chocolate liquor.

  Chicago-based World's Finest Chocolate unveiled the bar this week and said it would be taken on a tour of US school, where students would be taught to "think big" by eating smart.

  "We purposely made this bar to be an example of 'portion distortion,'" the company's CEO Eddie Opler said in a statement.

  "We're committed to educating families about eating right and staying active and doing it in a fun and engaging way."
