KFC Spain's Official Account Tweeted In Gujarati & Indians Around The World Are Losing It
The official twitter handle of KFC Spain posted a tweet in Gujarati and Indians have been confused ever since.
There is no doubt that Prime Minister Modi has brought India much closer to the world. Leaders from different nation send tweets and regards to Narendra Modi on celebratory evernts and visa versa.
So, naturally Gujarat and the language Gujarati has also become popular and this language showed up at a place where one would least expect it - at the official KFC account.
Yes, we're talking about the famous chicken outlet which proudly goes by the tagline "finger lickin' good." Now, unless this world-renowned chicken outlet has started selling dhokla and thepla there is no reason for it to use Gujarati in its tweet, right? But it somehow did for a reason that none of us have figured out yet.

KFC Spain's official Twitter account posted a line in Gujarati with a picture that seemingly looked like an Indian politician. After translating the sentence, it turned out to add upto a bunch of words that made no sense.
The tweet read, "Fried Chicken and the World Colonel Sanders Kentucky Fried Chicken Devil Restaurant Food Potatoes 07/22."
Indians around the world were seemingly confused and tried to figure out why the handle posted in Gujarati and who was the person in the picture.

Not sure what's more ominous - the photo, KFC Spain tweeting in Gujju, or the fact that the only words I can understand in the tweet are "Sanders Shaitan Restaurant". https://t.co/pFoK09Mvbd
