The pretty Mexican city of Durango is usually a quiet, sleepy place,
but recently something special happened Last week the people of
Durango created a very large bowl of soup, the largest bowl of
soup in the world in fact Romania held the old record for the
largest bowl of soup, which contained 5045litres of soup The
Mexican bowl broke that record, however, as it contained an
ama zin g 5350 litres of soup.
The people of Durango spent months planning this project.

Cooking the soup was a hard job, but finding a cooking pot big
enough was also difficult A month was spent planning and
buildin g the bowl. Local farmers provided the food that was
needed. All the local restaurants offered their chefs to make the
soup. Many local people worked as waiters and cleaners for the
day. The local schools put on a day-long show of music and
dancing. Thousands of people came to the town to celebrate the
super-sized soup. The cooks had a lot of work to do to prepare the
soup. For example, they had to cut up 530 kg of onions and use
100 litres of vegetable oil
This project has shown the people of Durango that people can do
anything when they work together. e look forward to hearing
about their next world record
1 Durango is usually a v ry noisy and busy place .

3 They already had a bowl big enough for the soup .
4 The people of Durango spent four weeks building the soup bowl.
5 Many chefs helped make the soup .
6 It took fiv hours to cut up the onions.
7 Not only local people joined in with the celebrations .
8 The people of Durango are good cooks when they work together.
