The Guinness World Records on Tuesday, June 13, officially updated their records to include Nigerian chef Hilda Baci for breaking the longest cooking marathon by an individual.
From Thursday, May 11 to Monday, May 15, Hilda cooked over 100 pots of food during her four-day kitchen stint.
Although the chef had attempted to make the record 100 hours, her final record was at 93 hours 11 minutes.
The GWR 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.

Guinness world record has finally acknowledged Hilda’s cooking record but deducted 7hrs from her total time for taking a few more mins rest than agreed. Still a huge feat nonetheless. 😊

This is probably why she gunned for 100 hours. Incase of a discrepancy like this. Hilda Baci, you’ll always be famous!

The biggest lesson here is try go above the limits (give extra value) so that if there is a stricter standard you will still be amazing.
So what extra value and time frame are you giving.
Hilda knows there could be a cut down so she aimed higher.
Thanks for this update.— Joy Eki Omovie (@1stEkijo) June 13, 2023
With Hilda Baci being named the new GWR record holder for the cooking competition, it will take at least a year before another person can attempt it.
— POOJA!!! (@PoojaMedia) June 13, 2023
So other cooks can rest for now 🤪
Congratulations!!! 🎉🎉 🎉 Hilda Baci 🥘
