A traditional festival in Yamagata showcased the cooking of taro soup in a massive pot. Despite a thunderstorm, the event on the banks of the Mamigasaki River successfully prepared and sold out approximately 30,000 servings. The pot, measuring 6.5 meters in diameter, utilized two excavators to mix ingredients such as 3.2 tons of taro, 1.2 tons of beef, and 3,500 green onions. The cooking process lasted around 4½ hours and involved using a crane to hang a large wooden lid over the pot to protect it from the rain.
