I found this misspelled sign in my local Walgreen's (located inside the Empire State Building). I guess the fact that the product, spelled correctly, was 10 centimeters away is what really made this stand out.

Everywhere in Japan. It's a cream stuffed cookie, but its name and shape always remind native English speakers "colon". It tastes good, but my then girlfriend never tried it.

Everywhere in Japan. "Pocari Sweat" is a popular Japanese sports drink (like Gatorade). Most of the native English speakers are perplexed if Japanese people drink "sweat".

This is by far the best sign I've seen. I realize that I was a little too late to photograph the actual poster that was in the window but was able to get the same effect from one of their remaining lids. If you buy KFC, they will donate $ to KFC (Komen For the Cure). Talk about chasing ones tail.
And yes, I realize that it isnt an example of incorrect grammar. It's even better!

This is one of many things wrong with "health care" in this country. If the diseased meat and cheese weren't enough, the went ahead and "super-sized" this sandwich by omitting the bread and adding more diseased meat. Talk about a fast food nation!

This sign is located on 4th Avenue in Brooklyn. I actually went into the establishment to see what they were possibly referring to. Not to my surprise, there wasn't a single organic item in the place. Maybe, by stating "organic" they believe that they can command a higher price for their goods.
