Kelkit Sugar Bean world record attempt

Overview

In the Kelkit district of Gümüşhane, Turkey, a new Guinness World Record was established by cooking 6,840 liters of dried beans in a single cauldron. This feat surpassed a 2012 record of 5,600 liters previously set in Macedonia.

The event was a collaborative effort involving the Gümüşhane Governor’s Office, the Kelkit Municipality, and the Kelkit Chamber of Commerce and Industry. To ensure the validity of the record, the process was supervised by a food engineer and witnessed by independent parties.

The initiative was designed to promote the Kelkit Sugar Bean, a local agricultural product. Local officials, including Mayor Ünal Yılmaz, noted that the goal was to increase the global visibility of the regional crop to assist local farmers with marketing and economic development.
