Airline meals are taken very seriously and Pakistani airlines learnt this after a backlash on their latest advertisement.
The advertisement bore a picture of a cheese omelette, sausages and beans but had a tagline which said that it will "serve you a taste of home".
The PIA ad said, "Just when you start missing it, we serve you a taste of home! A dash of salt and a little bit of pepper, we tantalize your taste buds with our delicious meal to welcome the glorious morning! #PIA #BreakfastWithPIA."

Twitterati was quick to respond and said that the meal wasn't even close to a Pakistani breakfast. One Twitter user wrote, "You guys really need to sort yourselves out....."taste of home"? Come on whom did sausages and beans sound like a traditional Pakistani breakfast. Obviously you guys need some cultural training.....", while yet another said, "Correcting your definition of home. Check pic: Aisa anda paratha chahye, woh bhi slightly crispy. Anda with a runny egg yolk so that I can dip my paratha in it. That&rsquo;s the taste of home."
