A New Challenger of the Day: Iran's New Guinness World Record for the Largest Tub of Ice Cream

The American ice cream company Baskin Robbins's Guiness World Record of the largest tub of ice cream (8,865 pound tub of vanilla ice cream, 2005) has been reportedly beaten by the Iranian company Choopan Dairy's five-ton tub of chocolate ice cream. Unveiled outside of Tehran earlier this week on Monday, it apparently took eight hours to fill the tub (5 ft by 7 ft) and cost more than $30,000 to make.
