It reads like a cry for help from the factory worker who made these potato chips: “Hand cooked in 100% pure peanut oil.” I presume the rest: “In great pain. Someone call for help!”
Of course, it’s the Utz Kettle Classics that were cooked by hand, in oil. You might even say they were hand-cooked.
Oh, and lose the quotation marks, or was the factory worker praising the spicy heat just as his hand fell into the peanut oil?
Our latest typo finds follow; you’ll find other gems in earlier posts here, here, here, here and here.
Ted’s Montana Grill, co-founded by Ted Turner, recently introduced Bison Ridge, a line of private-label wine.
Blended exclusively for the restaurants, Bison Ridge is “proprietary” to them.
It’s understandable that one might stammer in the presence of the beautiful new Miss USA, Nia Sanchez.

You know what’s also outrageous? Confusing buses, a mode of transportation, with busses, aka kisses.
It’s a case of grammatical malpractice in this outfield sign for Hunterdon Healthcare at Diamond Nation, a baseball and softball complex in Flemington, N.J.
The Hunterdon Medical Center Foundation is a singular entity, hence it takes a singular verb and “is” a proud “sponsor.”

The Federal Hockey League is a low-level professional league that a couple of years ago operated a team in Williamsport, Pa., that played all of its home games outdoors.
The league’s Danville (Ill.) Dashers hastily posted this gem on its website.
I assume that “attanation” approximates “attention,” and “proses” should be “process,” and “sign up’s” was intended as “sign-ups.” This is no way for a team and a league of questionable credibility to enhance their reputations.
Come to think of it, it looks like the writing of someone who sat through too many outdoor games in the dead of winter.
