This sign was in the window of a small cafe near Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco. There was a sign on the sidewalk which read “Home of the World’s Famous Breakfast,” and the home bake’t muffin was part of it.The breakfast was lousy.
I wonder if the apostrophe is signaling the omission of “r stree”, linking this muffin to Gerry Rafferty’s Baker Street? Wait, that makes no sense.

BARMY council chiefs banned cabbie Laurence Kirk from working – because he can’t use apostrophes.

I think they MEANT to say “baked”.
Baked and bake’t sound a LOT alike.
Perhaps “Huked On Fonix Werkd 4 Hem?”
