Giant eBay French Fry a Record?
At a price of almost $200 and with a length of 8 inches, a French fry found at a bar and restaurant in the USA seems likely to make it into the record books.
One of the bartenders, Mindy Marland at the Checkered Flag Bar and Grill near Walcott in Iowa apparently saw the giant French fry on a plate that was about to be delivered to one of the restaurant’s customers by a waitress.
Mindy decided this unusual item might be an ideal candidate to sell in the “weird” category on eBay auctions and “liberated” the fry from the customer’s plate before it could be eaten. With a starting bid of just one dollar, the giant fry quickly rose in price to finish the sale with a winning bid of almost $200.
Mindy is reported to be planning a summer trip to an amusement park with her two children on proceeds from the eBay auction and may also be in touch with the Guinness Book of Records to let them know about the potentially world record-breaking French fry.
Take a look at eBay Auctions UK – you probably won’t find a record breaking chip, but you will find great bargains on just about everything else you can think of.
