US Secretary of State John Kerry was on a two-day visit to Pakistan for a strategic dialogue when on Tuesday he went to a Dunkin Donuts store in Islamabad to get a 'little slice of home'.
He tweeted a photograph of him in the store.

Kerry soon became the target of internet trolls who mocked his decision to go to a Dunkin Donuts store instead of opting for a traditional Pakistani breakfast.
He skipped the kebabs for this. Bah, Amreekis MT @JohnKerry:A little slice of home here in #Islamabad: @DunkinDonuts pic.twitter.com/rFE9usAt0eâ€

@Darkwyr @SullivanTimAP Reminds me of when I visited a small Irish brewery. At the bar after the tour, an American tourist asked for a Bud.
