Google is known for its great sense of humor, especially when it comes to adding easter eggs in its products. From its search engine to features like Google Now, you will see a lot of intentional jokes, or in other words, easter eggs hidden in them. Fortunately, there are some diggers who keep on digging through various products to find out such eggs, and they are kind enough to share them with us. Here’re some of the Google Now easter eggs you should probably know if you use Google Now.

If you include the term “Sudo” while asking Google Now to make a sandwich, it will say “OK” instead of no when you ask the question above. That shows the power of Sudo (superuser).
