I don't think it's any secret that I enjoy food. I'm a fairly picky eater, but on the plus side, I'm a cheap date. You set me up with a delicious pizza and some good beer, and I'm yours. Sandwiches, salads, pasta, seafood. Cheese, bread, chocolate. I'm a boring eater, consistent to a fault. Sadly, that means I've often perused the menus of my regular places too many times to count, and found all the spelling errors there are to be found in them. However, that's where you come in! Menus are a treasure trove of interesting and creative solutions in the letter-options category, as I like to call it. Or, at least, that's how many menu writers seem to think. Again, if you're going to the expense of having something printed that will represent your restaurant and its food, you might want to have someone proofread it, just in case you missed something. You just never know.
This submission came to me from my internet buddy CP. Just take a look.

Do you see it? Here's a close up croppy-do, in case you can't.

The real tragedy here is that it's spelled correctly directly below, making it a typo that slipped by everyone. Who knows how many everyones went into the making of this error.
Is Black Peeper the name of my new band, or a new skateboarding move? "Dude, have you seen her pull off a Black Peeper? It is WICKED!"
(The kids totally don't talk like that anymore, do they? Crap. I am old and crotchety. DON'T JUDGE ME. Thanks for the pic, CP!)
My pleasure. Some things just need to be shared.
