A wise and clever foodie once assured me she starts learning any new language with food and kitchen words. I love food, I enjoy advertising, and I love humor in translation, especially when I can't tell if it's intentional!

"Angry Korean Fried Chicken ... So, So Angry" in Berlin, Germany |
|
"Kakastöke
Pörkött ... Rooster Testicle Stew" in Budapest, Hungary |
|
"Holy Monkey! ... Tea & Dumplings" in Stockholm, Sweden |
|
"Lovely Toffee Muffin ... Lovely Strawberry Muffin" in Östersund, Sweden |
|
"Daffy's Junkfood House" in Östersund, Sweden |
|
"Godstransporter" Restaurant pager at Daffy's in Östersund -- OK, I know it translates to "freight,"
and that's perfectly reasonable for one of those vibratey alert pucks they give you at restaurants,
but wouldn't it be better if it was a kind of divine Trek-transporter device? Yes, it would. |
