salsa or whatever


Lauren spotted this in a mexican restaurant in Concord, CA. I can't imagine what would make something so far from salsa to need quotation marks.

    This is great! My sister-in-law just sent me the link to this blog. My husband and I laugh all the time at unnecessary quotation marks. There's a restaurant near our house - underneath the name it says: "Fine" home cooking! So...maybe it's not so fine?? :)

    Love the blog!

    That sign is really unappealing.

    It could be that they simply forgot that they are supposed to put foreign words in italics and not quotes.

    "Salsa," may be a reference to what the salsa looks like after feral children get through playing with it.

    These indulged brats are the products of "adults."

    I'm guessing that "salsa" is nothing more than "ketchup" mixed with diced "peppers."

    Don't ask where they got their "ketchup," you don't want to know.

    This one seems fine. The quote marks indicate the language-shift.
