UC Berkeley students make world-record California sushi roll

BERKELEY, Calif. — It began with ninjas and it ended with tofu, and somewhere in the middle hundreds of amateur sushi rollers set a new world record.

The world's longest California roll was made on the University of California, Berkeley campus Sunday, according to Consul-General of Japan Yasumasa Nagamine. Organizers lined up dozens of six-foot tables that were manned by volunteer students and campus employees and created 330 feet of California roll, complete with avocado, cucumber and faux-crab meat.
