Woops! Got you there?

On April Fool’s Day, Jollibee UK posted on their Facebook page that they’re rebranding and retiring the famous red and yellow color, upgrading it to black and yellow. From bee, the new mascot will now be a wasp!

But of course, Jollibee UK was able to reassure everyone that the announcement was just part of the April Fool’s prank.

People in the comments section couldn’t help but feel surprised and trolled by the prank. Some of the comments joked that instead of participating in April Fool’s, Jollibee should’ve improved their services even as they looked forward to Jolliwasp’s.

Some went along with the prank, saying that the food might not be as good as the new color combination.

Many people participated in the April Fool’s Day prank last April 1. But we have to admit that this is top tier and has definitely created a buzz everywhere.
