They also gave new meaning to the word &#8216;food fight.&#8217; It was food over love for them, we guess.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve heard that food is love and food is life, but this is the first time we&#8217;ve actually seen food come between a couple.<\/p>\n<h3>Fight over Wedding Food Leads to Divorce<\/h3>\n<p>The ex-couple hails from Gondal district in Indian Gujarat. We know that Gujarat has some pretty sublime cuisine, but what we never realized was how big a priority it was to them. Literally.<\/p>\n<p>The worst part? This wedding\u00a0didn&#8217;t even get to the &#8217;till death do us apart&#8217; part. In fact, they barely made it to the main course of the meal.<\/p>\n<p>Just minutes after the couple tied the knot, they called it quits when it came to their family&#8217;s fight over the wedding food.<\/p>\n<p>Wedding food has ended lives before, and we have heard that in those cases, food poisoning was to blame. This recent incident however, seems juvenile at best.<\/p>\n<h3>Here&#8217;s What Happened<\/h3>\n<p>It all started when the groom&#8217;s family didn&#8217;t like the menu, aka the larkay walay. When the argument got heated (the only heat you can&#8217;t blame on Gujarati spice), the two sides really dug in, not into the food though.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_216497\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-216497\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-216497 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Food-fight.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-216497\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Source: We Heart It<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Pretty soon it looked like a high school cafeteria fight (only more lavish since they had real food). Punches were thrown (not fruit punch) and insults hurled ( and some food too as everyone&#8217;s appetite went out the door).<\/p>\n<h3>Police Called in to End Food Fight on Wedding<\/h3>\n<p>When plates started to smash, someone called the police. It took the freaking police to break up this food fight.<\/p>\n<p>Soon after the police came &#8216;The Suits&#8217;. We mean lawyers, not a clean-up mission.<\/p>\n<p>And before we knew it, the legal formalities for filing for divorce was\u00a0carried out at the wedding venue. Wedding gifts were returned as well.<\/p>\n<h3>Biryani Has Ended Marriages Too<\/h3>\n<p>We suppose there&#8217;s a first time for everything. This wasn&#8217;t the first time though. Stolen fries hurt but stolen thunder, that&#8217;s like the worst day ever!<\/p>\n<p>Back in 2014, a woman called off her wedding when the groom\u2019s family wanted mutton biryani instead of chicken. Biryani is no <em>mazaak,\u00a0<\/em>so perhaps some of us can sympathize with her here?<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; letter-spacing: 5px; font-size: 16px; margin: 0;\">ALSO READ<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"font-size: 20px; font-weight: 600; font-family: Rajdhani,Poppins,Roboto,Arial,sans-serif;\" href=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/biryani-as-national-dish-of-pakistan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Biryani Needs to Be the National Dish of Pakistan [Opinion]<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>So here&#8217;s what happened in this case.\u00a0The bride-to-be\u2019s family sent 30 kg of chicken biryani to the groom\u2019s family.\u00a0The groom&#8217;s family became upset because they do not eat chicken.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, the issue was resolved but when it came up again at the wedding, the bride refused to get married.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Police, the bride said that if they&#8217;re treating her like this now, whose to say things will improve after she gets married?<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSeeing how events were unfolding, the bride refused to get hitched.
