Don't People Spellcheck?

[marval]

This is part of a dessert menu at a pub near here in Buckinghamshire.

You would think they would have spellchecked or at least read it through first.

Agree it looks like a scan that they haven't checked probably because the original was fine.

[humbersloop]

you'd have to order it after that though, pmsl

Neah....thei don't

I've seen plenty of sandwitches and given the looks of some of the cooks, that is an apt description of several of them.

From my 'Mickey Mouse' book that I kept at the back of my briefcase to record things like this, especially food:
1. How about 'Fried Bum' - seen in Shanghai
2. Viagra Prawn Warps.
3. Chicken Wings, ruthlessly clipped.
4. God delicious bean sauce
5. Diet Cock
6. And a bowel of egg-fried rice.

and from the Middle East
Homos with Meat

Oh - and from New York, a Gin and Cumcumber cocktail.....

yummeee.....get bernie or Sqad in!

It never ceases to amaze me when people. firms pay for expensive signage on their premises or vehicles but don't check them. I recall in Stockport a brand new Mercedes van carrying a line in Bridal Dress'ess and a lovely country hotel near York offering Accomodation.
Similarly, children's names! In one class my OH had Gary Baldie, Sean Lamb and Christopher Lee. I once had a James Bond, the image of the Milky Bar kid.

You've only got to look through the Thread Titles on AB to answer your Question!

Just remembered another one. I went to a restaurant in France that offered
'Cock of the Nice Farmer Roasted in the Oven'. I didn't fancy that in my mouth.

[DTCwordfan]

Come again on that one, Eddie.....

[marval]

Here are some things on the menu I don't fancy.

Read out loud, it might sound like an excerpt from 'Allo 'Allo

[aelmpvw]

[royfromaus]

i suppose it's possible that the cheese menu was typed by the sommelier after a heavy tasting session
