Celebration to Remember World's Largest Lefse

The world record lefse was baked during the Starbuck Centennial Celebration in 1983 by a group of Starbuck Lions. The 70 pound lefse had a diameter of 9 feet 8 inches and was baked. Currently, Starbuck holds the Lefse Dagen celebration to commemorate the record setting occasion. [Theresa, 12/06/2007]

Hobo Statue. Hobo, Starbuck, and don't forget the Lefse!

There is a Starbuck and Hobo in Starbuck, MN. By the Hobo there is some sort of giant cooking pot like you would have over the fire for meals I suppose -- that giant hobo's gotta eat, right? But also not to be missed in Starbuck is the "lefse." Unfortunately, there is no fiberglass commemorative statue, just a giant sign that can be easily missed if not paying attention. In July of 83' apparently they made the World's Largest Piece of Lefse and the sign shows a picture of this process. [Holly Diestler, 04/27/2006]
