Leah Shutkever from the United Kingdom has once again made her mark in the world of competitive eating by setting a new Guinness World Record for consuming the most strawberries in one minute. In an impressive display of speed and skill, Leah devoured a total of 313 grams of strawberries in just 60 seconds, as shared on Guinness World Records‘ official Instagram page.
The video accompanying the record-breaking feat captures Leah’s methodical approach to the challenge. She carefully finishes each strawberry before picking up the next, maintaining a steady and calculated pace throughout the entire minute. Within the short time frame, Leah clears an entire bowl of juicy, red fruit, proving her mastery of the art of eating.
Known for holding multiple food-related records, Leah adds this impressive achievement to her growing list. The Guinness World Records post proudly displayed the accomplishment with the caption: “Most strawberries eaten in one minute – 313 grams (11.04 oz) by Leah Shutkever @shutkeverofficial.”
Following the feat, Leah shared her thoughts: “I felt like it went really well. I felt like there was a good tempo,” reflecting on the rhythm she maintained during the challenge.
The viral post sparked a wide range of reactions from Instagram users. Some viewers were confident they could beat the record, with one person commenting, “I could have beaten that; I just didn’t know it was a record.” Others joked about their own strawberry-eating prowess, with one saying, “Every time I eat strawberries, I eat at least double that before I even sit down… stop playing with me.” Another user added, “I can eat 30 in 30 seconds.” Some comments humorously suggested alternative ways to break the record, such as, “I would smash them with my hands and drink them. Just hand me the record right now.”
Leah’s latest achievement follows a growing trend in the world of food records, including another recent milestone for the heaviest strawberry. The record for the world’s heaviest strawberry was set in Kadima-Zoran, Israel, by Ariel Chahi, who grew a massive strawberry weighing 289 grams (299 grams with the stem). The giant fruit measured 18 cm in length, 4 cm in thickness, and had a circumference of 34 cm, earning its place in the Guinness World Records.
