Japan cooking show recognized by Guinness

TOKYO: A 65-year-old cooking show in Japan has been recognized by Guinness World Records as the longest-running culinary program, broadcaster NHK said.

Since its inception in 1957, NHK's 'Kyo no Ryori,' or 'Today's Cooking,' has featured about 46,600 recipes, often reflecting the zeitgeist of the times, from economic downturn to women's empowerment.
