US Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal on November 3 cooked up a firestorm on social media. This comes after she endorsed California Senator & vice-presidential running candidate Kamala Harris ahead of US elections 2020. Jayapal is the first Indian-American woman to serve in the US House of Representatives. She shared a photo of her "comfort food" to honour VP nominee Kamala Harris. She also urged citizens to cast their vote. While her heart was in the right place, desi foodies failed to locate the "paneer tikka" in Jayapal's picture. Twitterati especially those from India, trolled the politician with wrongly labelled cuisines. Kamala Harris was born in Oakland, California, and her father is Jamaican. Harris is the first woman and the first person of colour to be elected to both positions as district attorney in San Francisco and as attorney general of California. She is often referred to as the 'Female Barack Obama' by her followers.
