However, doubts began to surface about the legitimacy of his claim, prompting an investigation by Guinness World Records.
Chef Smith, who recently gained attention for allegedly setting a new culinary record, has been at the centre of widespread acclaim and celebration.
In an official response to an email which was sent by GHone Tv, Guinness World Records clarified the situation, stating: “No, this is not true at all. He does not hold the GWR title and that is not our certificate. The current and true record holder is: The longest cooking marathon (individual) is 119 hr 57 min 16 sec and was achieved by Alan Fisher (Ireland) in Matsue, Shimane, Japan, from 28 September to 3 October 2023.”
