Nigerian chef, Hilda Effiong Bassey better known as Hilda Baci has revealed that she did not know she could sit while cooking to break the Guinness world record.
Hilda, who on Monday, 15th May completed a 100- hour cooking marathon in her quest to become the Guinness World Record holder for the longest cooking time by an individual, said she stood for 100 hours cooking because she saw that the contestant who had won the challenge didn’t sit while cooking.
I didn’t know i could sit while cooking. I only found out after i completed the challenge that i could. One of the reasons i was intentional about filming the whole process was because when i decided to attempt the challenge, i want online and could only see three videos.
One of the reasons why i didn’t know i could sit despite the fact that Guinness didn’t ask me to stand is that when i checked the videos of the previous chef, she was standing.
Only after the attempt did i find a clip of her sitting. Maybe before now, no one thought was possible to stand for 100 hours cooking, but because somebody has done it, it means its possible and doable,” the Akwa born chef said
