Largest Dish Washed-world record set by Procter &
Gamble
[Feb
3]CINCINNATI,USA--Procter
& Gamble (P&G)
announced that its revolutionary dish care product Dawn
Direct Foam has set a new World Record for "Largest Dish
Ever Washed."
Helping set the record on February 1 in Phoenix
was legendary football star Emmitt Smith who cleaned the giant plate,
which measured 10 feet in diameter.
The dish was filled with potato skins and chili and topped with
sour cream to mimic a traditional sporting event snack, and was
then cleaned in under three minutes by the football hero. Emmitt's
game winning combination involved a bottle of Dawn Direct Foam,
a sponge and a bucket of water.
"I'm always up for a good challenge and when Dawn asked
me to tackle this dish with just one bottle of Dawn
Direct Foam to set a World Record I couldn't wait to get
started," said Smith. "I'm happy that Dawn and I were able to set
the record and my wife is happy that at least I'm doing someone's
dishes," said Smith. Photo: Emmitt Smith Dallas legend drops the

After the record was set amidst excited football
fans and spectators, the dish was displayed at Majerle's in downtown
Phoenix.
"We are thrilled that Dawn
Direct Foam and Emmitt Smith were able to set the record
for the largest dish ever washed, a feat which also demonstrates
to consumers the strength of this product," said Glenn Williams,
external relations manager for Procter
& Gamble.
"Dawn Direct Foam is truly a breakthrough as
it can not only successfully clean a 10-foot dish, but can also
clean a sink full of your messy dishes with just one pump," he added.
