World's biggest meatball
A US restaurant has broken the world record for the largest
meatball.
Matthew Mitnitsky, the owner of Nonni's Italian Eatery in
Concord, New Hampshire, said his 222.5lb (101kg) meatball had been
verified by Guinness World Records.
Mr Mitnitsky said he wanted "to bring the meatball back to the
East Coast", reports the BBC.
The old record of 198.6lb (90kg) was set only two months ago
after the US talk show host, Jimmy Kimmel, vowed to beat a record
set in Mexico in August.
To break the record, the meatball must be a larger-scale version
of the normal food item with the same classic ingredients, be made
in one day, and be edible.
Mr Mitnitsky's record-breaking meatball was later donated to the
Friendly Kitchen in Concord to feed the hungry.
