Are there mushrooms in the quesadilla? Are they two separate items on the plate? Perhaps Mushroom is the the nickname of one of the chefs?

Seen at El Sabor de Oaxaca on James. The former restaurant at this location also earned an entry on Apostrophe Abuse.

Spotted at Starbucks in the Smith Tower.

Abuse from David Mamet, spotted over at the Huffington Post.

(Thanks, Karen!)

(Thanks, Eli!)

Another contribution via Amber‘s mom:

Spotted at Larry’s Market on Aurora.

Someone (the contributor, perhaps?) scratched out the apostrophe and added, “It’s not possessive!” to the sign.

(Thanks, Abbie!)

Also, I appreciate these restaurants that make their menus available online — camera phones don’t always take the best pictures in low-light situations.
