Internet Wants To "Call The Police" After Watching Viral Video Of Matcha Fried Rice
Shared by Instagram user @foodmakescalhappy, the video shows a man adding matcha powder to rice in a pan. He then tosses in eggs, garlic, soy sauce, wasabi, miso and spring onions. After giving everything a quick stir-fry, he takes a bite of the vibrant green creation. The verdict? He wasn't a fan. The matcha clashed with the other flavours, leaving a bitter aftertaste. Sharing the video, he summed it up in the caption: "Matcha fried rice, sigh." Curious to see how it turned out?

Ever thought matcha could go too far? The internet certainly has. Since being shared, the video has racked up over 98K views and 1.9K likes - and it's not just the colour that has people talking. The unusual combination of fried rice and matcha left viewers both amused and appalled, and the comment section is an absolute goldmine. Here are some of the most hilarious reactions:
"Too much matcha.. You need to pair it with something sweet and sour maybe."
"I think this works."
"Definitely too much of a good thing, bro. Matcha usually is like 1-2 teaspoons. I can imagine with the right portions, it would be a rendition of Hakka Lei Cha (Thunder Tea Rice). Should be quite good."
"There was too much green."
"I'll call the police and ambulance."
"I just turned from half Japanese to full white."
"Bro,I have the same matcha and was thinking of cooking matcha fried rice last week." "Not the kind of greens I imagined for rice."
"This is illegal."
Clearly, the internet isn't holding back. Would you dare to try it?

Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani blessed with a baby girl
Bollywood actors Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani have reportedly welcomed their first child—a baby girl—at a Mumbai hospital, though no formal announcement has been made by the couple as of now. According to a source familiar with the matter, the baby was delivered via normal delivery at Reliance Hospital, and both mother and child are said to be in good health. The news comes months after the couple publicly revealed they were expecting. In February, the pair shared a heartfelt Instagram post featuring a pair of baby socks and the caption: "The greatest gift of our lives... Coming soon". The announcement was met with an outpouring of love and congratulations from fans and industry peers alike. Sidharth and Kiara first met at a private gathering before working together on the 2021 war drama 'Shershaah', where their off-screen chemistry began to mirror their on-screen pairing. Though the two remained discreet about their relationship, they tied the knot on February 7, 2023 in a private ceremony held in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. Since their wedding, the couple have continued to maintain a low profile, occasionally sharing glimpses of their life together through social media, but largely keeping personal milestones private. As fans await an official confirmation, well-wishers across the country have already begun sending love and blessings to the reported new parents.
