Worlds biggets buffet 510 different dishes

It had to be done in America… somebody set the record for creating the world's largest buffet.

About 850 hungry customers helped Bayer HealthCare LLC, celebrate the 75th anniversary of its heartburn relief product — known for the jingle "plop, plop, fizz, fizz" (they make Alka-Seltzer)— by partaking in a massive spread at the Las Vegas Hilton.
In all, 510 dishes were set in front of the crowd Tuesday. Each one had to be certified distinct by a Guinness World Record adjudicator. They ranged from Mongolian chicken and salmon Wellington to creme brulee and homemade apple pie.

There was no previous record for the stomach-expanding event, so Guinness set the bar high at 500 dishes to qualify. "It's an amount large enough to make it a feat that will stretch people," Causey said.
If at anytime while reading this article your mouth watered when you read there was 510 dishes in the buffet… you are absolutely pathetic- and more than likely you’re an American. Speaking of which, when did buffets become more American than apple pie? Article here.
