A SCHOOLBOY bit off more than he could chew when he pulled out a Krave cereal shell that was 7½ inches long.

Paul Hill, 12, counted nine individual shells that failed to separate during production.

He found the gigantic chocolate wheat pillow when he poured his Kellogg’s Krave for breakfast.

Paul, of Leeds, West Yorkshire, said: “As I put them into the bowl, the biggest one I have ever seen came tumbling out.

“It was huge. I thought, ‘There’s no way I’m going to be able to swallow that without breaking it up with a hammer'.

“I couldn’t believe the size of it so I thought that I’d measure it. I cannot see that anyone has come across a giant Krave before.

“From its length, I reckon it must be a record, and one that will take some beating.”

He is planning to contact Guinness World Records to verify the monster munch — although one shell has dropped off.

Mum Paula, 35, said: “We couldn’t believe it when he showed it to us. I’ve never seen anything like it in my life and this family gets through a lot of cereal.”

Dad Sam, 38, said he would get it framed and hang it in the kitchen if it does get confirmed as a world-beater.

He added: “I can’t see anyone beating a record like this soon.”
