Guinness World Records Issues Statement On Hilda Baci
Guinness World Records has released an official statement following the recent feat achieved by Nigerian-born chef, Hilda Baci.
Released on their official website, the statement read; “She’s hoping to snap up the record title for the longest cooking marathon (individual) which currently belongs to Lata Tondon (India) with a time of 87 hr 45 min.
“Hilda began cooking on Thursday and continued through to Monday, reportedly whipping up 55 recipes and more than 100 meals in a whopping 100-hour stint.
“Officials on our records team look forward to reviewing the evidence and hope to be able to verify Hilda’s efforts as a new record very soon.”
According to one of the British reference body’s spokespersons, they “are looking forward to receiving the evidence for its Records Management Team to review before we can confirm the record is official.”
Baci, who is an Akwa Ibom State indigene, surpassed the record for the longest cooking time by an individual, with a 100-hour record time.
By her feat, Baci beat the record that was held by Indian chef, Lata Tondon, who had completed his cooking task in 87 hours, 45 minutes, and 00 secs in 2019.
