‘Add a filter maybe it will be better,’ one person advised the man who took to Twitter to share how KFC ‘did him a dirty’ with their kota.

A young TikToker has left South Africans in stitches after heading online to share his hilarious “What I ordered vs What I got” experience. The man is one of many people who were overly excited to try the KFC Sphathlo but unfortunately for him, his excitement fell flat when he saw what was in inside his box.

The post went viral as many discussed the meal and how many times they too fell victim to buying things they saw online and then getting disappointed by what arrives.
