The largest omelette weighed 6.466 tonnes (14,225 lb 6 oz) and was achieved by the Câmara Municipal de Ferreira do Zêzere (Ferreira do Zêzere City Council, Portugal) in Santarém, Portugal, on 11 August 2012. It took a team of 150 people (rotating in shifts of about 55) 6 hours to make this omelette, all led by a head chef, Pedro Mendes. A 4,290-kg (9,457-lb) pan was used, with a 10.3-m (33-ft) diameter. In kilograms, the weight of the omelette totalled 6,466 kg. For this attempt, the omelette used 145,000 eggs, 880 lb of oil and 220 lb of butter. All eggs used were free range and donated by Uniovo and Zezereovo – the largest domestic egg producer. This omelette was made at a festival held in the region for Portuguese people who live and work elsewhere during the year. It is called the 'Immigrant Festival'.
