Recall that over 100 pots of different dishes and food were prepared during the four days that the 26-year-old Nigerian chef Hilda kept busy in the kitchen, starting on Thursday, May 11, and continuing through Monday, May 15. Hilda had tried to break the record by working for 100 hours, but she was shorted by about seven hours because she miscalculated the lengths of some of her rest breaks early on in the endeavor.

And Last Tuesday, the Guinness Book of World Records formally recognized Hilda as the longest-cooking marathon record holder. The Body said that after carefully examining all the available data, Hilda had been awarded the record, according to a statement on the Guinness World Records website. GWR said,

“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 11 minutes.”

The previous benchmark, which Lata Tondon (India) set in 2019, was 87 hours and 45 minutes. A live Instagram stream allowed millions in Nigeria and elsewhere to follow Hilda’s record attempt as it unfolded.

“Yeah, this is our best-performing tweet of all time, with nearly 25 million news feeds reached.”
