Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the most people slicing meat; it is 162, achieved at an event organised by Antonio Ramos García (Spain) in Benarraba, Spain on 2 March 2014.
Spaniard Gregorio Perez on Sunday broke the Guinness record for the most time spent slicing ham, a feat for which he prepared for more than a year and which forced him to lose 21 kilograms (46 pounds).

He thus managed to break the previous Guinness World Records' ham-slicing record of 33 hours and 3 minutes held by one of his countrymen.
