Lata Tondon, an Indian chef, was the first woman to hold the record for the longest time spent cooking. She had been cooking nonstop for 87 hours and 45 minutes.
On the other hand, Hilda Baci has broken that record by cooking for 100 hours, 55 recipes over 100 meals, and feeding over 3000 people.
Social media users, particularly Nigerians, are waiting for Guinness World Records (GWR) to recognize Hilda Baci as the new record holder formally.
