Netizens praise Hilda Baci after Guinness World Record's confirmation of longest cooking marathon

Internet users across the globe have taken to micro-blogging platform, Twitter, to celebrate and congratulate popular Nigerian chef, Hilda Effiong Bassey, better known as Hilda Baci after Guinness confirmed and awarded her the Guinness record for the World’s Longest Cooking marathon.

According to Guinness, although Hilda Baci attempted to do 100 hours of cooking, she was awarded 93 hours, and 11 minutes because she mistakenly took extra minutes for one of her rest breaks.

Prior to her feat, India’s Lata Tondon, in 2019, held the record for cooking with 87 hours and 45 minutes.

Regardless, reactions from internet users have been of admiration.

Check out some reactions from internet users:

Hilda Baci is now the reigning champ of cooking marathons! She cooked up a storm for longer than anyone else. You can watch her victory dance and see how long she cooked in the video below. Let's give Hilda a round of applause (and maybe a snack)! ????????
