It appears Mexicans have a propensity for sandwich making: just a few weeks ago, bakers in Mexico City created the largest sandwich in Latin America, weighing a staggering 600 kg (1,320 lbs) and reaching 44 meters long. This sandwich beat a similar sandwich made for last year's torta fair, that was one meter shorter. However, Mexico City set the world record for sandwich making in 2004 with a whopping 3,178 kg sandwich!
