Guinness representative Johanna Hessling, who traveled to the exhibition, confirmed that the Paraguay sausage broke the previous record of 150 meters (492 feet) held by a Spanish encased meat.
After being prepared by 245 people and served with bread, the 270-kilo sausage was cooked in a specially designed oven and cut into 2,000 pieces, said a spokesman for the "Expo 2011" exhibition that opened this week in the Paraguay capital. (*)
