The community of Grand Forks, North Dakota gobbled up some 4,518 pounds of french-fries during an annual event held during what is labeled as "Potato Bowl U.S.A" week, which recognizes the potato industry in the Red River Valley and includes a University of North Dakota football game.

The original record was 4,410 pounds set in 2003 but was shattered as over 11,000 servings of fries were eaten along with 100-gallons of ketchup.

An estimated 10,000 people were served throughout the entire contest which took under two-hours to complete.
