However some of us may think of the famous Guinness\u2019 Book of Records, a collection of certified and internationally recognized legends. Probably even fewer of us know that the two concepts are closely related: The original idea of the Guinness\u2019 Book of Records came from Sir Hugh Beaver, director of the Guinness Brewery, who in 1951 while talking to a friend debated which is the fastest bird on earth. This inspirational debate was soon followed collecting more records and in 1955 the first \u201eGuinness\u2019 Book\u201d was published.<\/p>\n<p>For our self consciousness in Szeged it is better to focus on paprika instead of beer. With the Szeged Paprika Show and Chili Weekend [LINK] soon coming, let&#8217;s recall a true record that was established in our region, hosted by the Szeged Paprika Days back in 2005.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Paprika and Guinness&#8217; Book of Records<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Between September 1 and 4, 2005, a garland of nearly 700-meter of strung paprikas was completed, beating by far the former American record. This process followed a Mexican tradition to string paprikas on a long garland with a triple knot. How long? The XXL garland was 314 meters long and lined up some twenty thousand peppers.<\/p>\n<p>The goal was set by the Civil Association of Szeged and Tibor Huszka, the organizer of the Szeged Paprika Days, when they decided to beat this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delmagyar.hu\/szeged_hirek\/folpaprikazzak_szegedet\/104352\/\">record<\/a>. And so it happened that during the three days festival the target was more than doubled. The final result, with 998 people contributing, including members of NGOs, city government representatives and many citizens of Szeged, was 696.9 meters long. During the measurements, the immense garland containing 39,954 pieces of paprika was fully spread out on the street. Once completed, it served as decoration in Szeged\u2019s main shopping street K\u00e1r\u00e1sz Street. This giant garland was proudly noted in the Guinness\u2019 Book of Records.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2093\" style=\"width: 209px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2093\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2093\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paprikamolnar.hu\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_0010-199x300.jpg\" alt=\"A paprika garland with a length of 696,9 meter was noted in the Guinness\u2019 Book of Records\" width=\"199\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.paprikamolnar.hu\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_0010-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.paprikamolnar.hu\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_0010-768x1156.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.paprikamolnar.hu\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_0010-680x1024.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.paprikamolnar.hu\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_0010-400x602.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.paprikamolnar.hu\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/DSC_0010.jpg 1488w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2093\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A paprika garland with a length of 696,9 meter was noted in the Guinness\u2019 Book of Records<\/p><\/div>\n<h2><strong>The hottest paprika<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Of course, when it comes to paprika, the world record in stringing does not come top of mind.

In 2017, the plant named <a href=\"http:\/\/storeinsider.hu\/cikk\/megdolt_a_paprikaerossegi_vilagrekord\">Pepper X<\/a> has the world record. The powerful hot taste of this paprika scored 3.18 million units on the Scoville scale for measuring spiciness. For comparison, on this scale the mexican jalape\u00f1o ranges from 2500-8000 units. Pepper X, in its pure form, is absolutely not suitable for human consumption, but it is present in the ingredients of a special hot sauce called &#8220;The Last Dab&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hearing the word &#8220;Guinness,&#8221; probably most of us imagine a pint of strong Irish beer in front of them.
