My first Engrish Submissions

Poetry is what gets lost in translation. ~ Robert Frost

Some of you may be familiar with the humorous site Engrish.com.  It documents translation mistakes, mostly on commercial products and signs, displaying awful English, not to mention unintentional double entendres. 

Mar27a Above is my first encounter with Engrish in real life, at the local FoodMaxx store.  Note that not only is chili mispelled on the packaging, but on the shelf labels as well (chilli).  Nice.  Finding one of these made me all warm and fuzzy inside (chilly does that ;). 

Also shown here is one that Larry found at Best Buy.  I wonder what they were trying to say instead of "wonderful life should with you"?
