Eating a lot of rice with a chopstick seems like an unachievable feat. Sumaiya Khan, a Bangladeshi woman, masterfully completed the difficult job of eating rice with chopsticks on February 17, 2024. A video showcasing the accomplishment was recently posted on Instagram by Guinness World Records. Sumaiya Khan uses chopsticks to consume 37 grains of rice in one minute in the video.

 After finishing the task, she was seen celebrating her achievement. “Most rice grains eaten in one minute using chopsticks- 37 by Sumaiya Khan, hashtag Guinness world records, hashtag officially amazing,” read the caption. 

According to GWR's website, Sumaiya Khan broke Teland La's previous record of eating 27 rice grains in one minute using chopsticks, which was set in April 2022 in Stanford, California.

This is not the first time people worldwide have amazed us with their record-breaking moments. Previously, a Frankfurt-based man Felix von Meibom made a Guinness World Record by drinking a cup of coffee at lightning-fast speed. He was found gulping the caffeinated drink in a mere 3.12 seconds, shaving off 0.05 seconds from the previous record holder. The remarkable accomplishment happened in September 2023.
