The past record of making the heaviest sandwich in the world was of 3,187 kilogram and the Ryan students surpassed this record by preparing sandwich-weighing 4,035 kilogram. For making this sandwich, 120 loaves of bread each having 2 feet length and 3 feet width were used. Besides this vegetables weighing 400 kilogram, cheese weighing 100 kilogram and pasta and potatoes weighing 5,000 kilogram were used.
