In an intriguing turn of events regarding the Guinness World Records attempt sweeping across Africa, Ugandan Chef Dorcus Mirembe, affectionately known as Mama D, has decided to forgo another endeavor to secure the coveted title for the longest cooking marathon by an individual.
This decision comes as Mama D closely follows the remarkable feat of Ghana’s Failatu Abdul-Razak, who is aiming to reach an astonishing 270 hours of continuous cooking by the end of January 10.
Having reportedly cooked for an impressive 144 hours and awaiting confirmation from the Guinness World Records, Mama D revealed her stance on X in response to the news of Failatu Abdul-Razak’s ambitious 240-hour cooking marathon, to surpass the current record holder, Irish Chef Alan Fisher.
Consequently, she has chosen not to pursue this endeavor any further.
When a commenter suggested that Mama D should wait for Chef Failatu to complete her cook-a-thon before attempting another one, Mama D disclosed that she has firmly decided against returning to the kitchen and cooking for days on end, solely to be recognized as the individual with the longest cooking time in the world.
She retorted, “Kindly read and understand,I meant we are creating a new record not participating in the Cookathon again.”
