BREAKING NEWS: Guinness World Records releases official statement on Hilda Baci
A formal declaration regarding Hilda Bassey Effiong, a.k.a. Hilda Baci, a Nigerian cook, has been issued by Guinness World Records.
Baci broke the record for the longest cooking session by a single person, previously held by Indian chef Lata Tondon, who finished the assignment in Rewa in 2019 in 87 hours, 45 minutes, and 00 seconds.
The declaration, which appeared on the organization's official website on Tuesday, said:
“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,” it also read.
According to the British reference body, one of its spokespersons said: “are looking forward to receiving the evidence for its Records Management Team to review before we can confirm the record is official.”
She had originally planned to stop at 4 p.m. today, surpassing the current Guinness World Record holder with her former 96-hour aim. However, she eventually surpassed the 96-hour target and has now accomplished a 100-hour record time.
