(BREAKING) COOK-A-THON: GUINESS WORLD RECORDS ANNOUNCES HILDA BACI AS NEW RECORD HOLDER
By Aishat Momoh. O.
Hilda Baci has been named the new record holder for the longest individual cooking on Tuesday by Guinness World Records.
“Following a thorough review of all the evidence, Guinness World Records can now confirm that Hilda Effiong Bassey, better known as Hilda Baci, has officially broken the record for the longest cooking marathon (individual), with a time of 93 hours and 11 minutes,” the GWR stated in a statement on its website.
The 26-year-old Nigerian chef worked in the kitchen for four days, starting on Thursday, May 11, and finishing on Monday, May 15, producing almost 100 pots of food.
Hilda made an effort to set a record of 100 hours, but her final total was reduced by about seven hours as a result of an early miscalculation in which she overestimated the length of one of her rest intervals.
