Blueberries are a super-food that can block fat cells, reduce the risk of heart disease and power your brain with anti-oxidants. They also have the incredible ability to make any chocolate cake sing! More often than not, blueberries weigh just a gram or two, but this mega-blueberry is 10 times the size.

Just about as big as a 5 Rand coin, this monster berry weighs more than any other blueberry in recorded history. 

The Guinness World Record for The Heaviest Blueberry was set weighing in at 12.39 grams. It was an OZblu blueberry grown in Wilbinga, Western Australia by David and Leasa Mazzardis.

In case you were wondering (or are growing giant blueberries), there’s no current record of the biggest blueberry in length. There is, however, the most amount of blueberries caught by mouth in one minute, and that number is 83.
