This Mandela Day (18 July 2022) NPO Ladles of Love undertook to break the world record for the biggest mosaics built with tins of food across two cities – Johannesburg as well as Cape Town .
Johannesburg saw 32 040 cans of food placed on a South African flag mosaic with Cape Town seeing 56 685 cans placed on a Madiba mosaic.
