No record: It's the way the cookies crumbled
Good morning, friends, Tennessean columnist Brad Schmitt here with heartbreaking news from the Nashville Sounds stadium.
There was a tough loss Monday at First Horizon Park, but it had nothing to do with baseball.
Local (and super delicious!) baker Christie Cookie tried to break the Guinness World Record for longest line of cookies, business writer Sherah Ndjongo reports.
The current record is 3,328 cookies, set in 2019 in China.
So Christie Cookie staffers got together 4,000 cookies (about $6,500 retail if you buy them in the biggest tins available) and started laying them out in a line along one of the base paths. The elements foiled the attempt — brisk winds whipped some cookies around, making them inedible and thus ineligible for consideration, a Guinness official ruled.
That's the way the cookie crumbles? I know, I know....
Fing out what happened to those (still edible) cookies in the story. You'll see it has a sweet ending after all.
Check out more stories below. And thank you for reading The Tennessean.
