Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>An Arizona restaurant celebrated its 75th anniversary by cooking a 25-foot, 7-inch chimichanga that\u2019s believed to be a new Guinness World Record.<\/p>\n

Ashley Negron, director of marketing and brand management for Macayo\u2019s Mexican Restaurants, said Guinness told officials no record exists for the world\u2019s largest chimichanga, so the record-keeping organization set the goal for originating the title at 23 feet, 7 inches.<\/p>\n

Negron said a team of about 25 Macayo\u2019s employees gathered at the location in Ahwatukee to assemble the massive deep-fried burrito from dozens of flour tortillas, 500 pounds of shredded chicken, 250 pounds of refried beans, 250 pounds of rice and multiple gallons of salsa.<\/p>\n

Evidence from the effort still must be reviewed by Guinness before the record is made official.<\/p>\n

Macayo\u2019s claims the chimichanga was invented at its original eatery in the 1940s, when someone accidentally dropped a burrito into the deep fryer.<\/p>\n

The story is unconfirmed, and another restaurant in Tucson claims to have invented the dish under similar circumstances around the same time.<\/p>\n
