several of these appear to be taking Honest Labeling laws a bit too seriously?

Some of those can’t be accidents. But very funny.

Aren’t we supposed to be offended or something?

i think it would’ve been funnier with actual translation below it when it isn’t obvious...

for example. sixi roasted husband would be sixi roasted puff

wild germ would be wild fungus...etc

most of it, is caused by the chinese character itself having multiple meanings, and the person running the computer doesn’t know english.

there are few that have correct translations, or close enough, but they aren’t common usage in english. still, a poor effort on the “translator’s” part.

case in point, “Whatever” was translated correctly...but in order for it to make sense for english readers, it should be something like “mixed fruit juice of the day”.

Sooooooooo funny!

One thing you have to admit: Asian sign makers are highly confident about their English abilities. They are dead wrong about their abilities but their self esteem is remarkable!

You know Silentgypsy, years ago military men thought it was funny to teach locals English phrases { and profanity } as a joke.

It looks as if they learned too well....

hahahaha
