Guinness World Record has confirmed the milestone achieved by Nigerian chef, Hilda Effiong Bassey who is better known as Hilda Baci.
In a statement released via their official platform on Tuesday, June 13, the research and record platform mentioned that Hilda Baci now holds the record for the longest cooking marathon.
The 26-year-old Nigerian chef began on Thursday 11 May and continued through to Monday 15 May, cooking over 100 pots of food during her four-day kitchen stint.
Hilda attempted to set a record of 100 hours, Guinness World Record explained via their online platform. Further, they explained that almost seven hours were deducted from her final total because she mistakenly took extra minutes for one of her rest breaks early on in the attempt.
As with all ālongest marathonā records, the participant is permitted a five-minute rest break for every continuous hour of activity. These rest breaks can be accumulated if not taken. They were the only times Hilda could use the bathroom or sleep during the attempt.
