SPAR’s Labelling Blooper Is A Real Beaut [Image]

We've seen some political poster blunders over the past few weeks. Enter SPAR and a new take on a food staple.

Back in the day, when Seth was still a man about town and we didn’t take ourselves too seriously (we still don’t, really), we used to feature something called ‘Ass Flavour‘.

Relax, this is still suitable for work – readers used to send in labels from various retailers who couldn’t be bothered to finish the word ‘assorted’, and we would run with it.

It’s been a while since we’ve dabbled in the mislabelling game (although we love a botched political poster), but then a reader sent in this gem, snapped at a SPAR.

A few Twitter users posted the image, too, so we’re not sure where it first surfaced. As the green part suggests, it might make your day:

In case your brain hasn’t yet kicked into fifth gear, there’s a misplaced ‘P’ in the word ‘potatoes’ which adds a uniquely South African flavour.

Treat yourself to a little chuckle, because for the next few days all you’ll be hearing about is elections.

Thanks, Lance
