New Delhi: Poha is poha and salad is salad. But calling poha a salad is not acceptable to Indians. Indigo recently got trolled for calling ‘Poha’ a ‘fresh salad’ because people simply couldn’t digest the fact.
On January 28, the airline took to its official Twitter handle to give internet users a glimpse of their freshly-made breakfast. IndiGo shared a photo of a plate of ‘Poha’ with a slice of lemon being squeezed into it to showcase its freshness. However, the picture read “Fresh Salads” which didn’t go well with the Desi snack at all. This grabbed the attention of Indian Twitter who started digging trolls at IndiGo for ‘their’ version of salad.
“Salads that are prepared and served on the same day, do try them. You’ll toss everything else away,” read the caption alongside the picture of ‘Poha’.
While some internet users called out the airline for their misrepresentation of salad, others had a good laugh at it. “If you are talking to Indians, by no measure this is a salad- it’s “poha”. You used to sell “upma”/ “poha” ready to eat versions by mixing boiling water so far; perhaps this version is freshly prepared poha with lime juice. It’s not salad,” wrote a user. Another one remarked, “Come on now, this is not a salad :D”
