A while ago, Chef Deo sparked mixed reactions online after she reportedly turned off the gas while cooking.
A video that recently emerged online suggests that the Ondo chef turned off the gas burner and comfortably ate one of the dishes she prepared.
This seemingly contradicts one of the rules of Guinness World Record for the cook-a-thon which states that the participant must not turn off the gas burner during the marathon. Watch here
