Grammar Cop: I Spell A Rat

Defendant: Westside Market.

Count 1: Misspelling of an adopted foreign word so as to render an expensive cake humorous, yet inedible.
Count: 2: Printing and displaying of a misspelled word so as to place dessert-seeking consumers in harm's way.

Report: Officer was, literally and figuratively, in the market for dessert. After spotting the signage in question, the officer performed a shelf-to-shelf search for hyper-caffeinated rodents before determining a crime had been committed. Officer ultimately settled for peanut butter cookies - an action that was related to pricing, not grammatical, concerns.

Fine: $26.99
