AN ad by KFC Australia showing a man giving fried chicken to West Indies fans has been labelled racist in the US.
In the "cricket survival guide" ad, an Australian fan named Mick asks viewers "Need a tip when you're stuck in an awkward situation?" after being surrounded by cheering West Indies fans.
He then shares a bucket of KFC chicken with fans around him to calm the situation
