Well you could just just look at it as design elements, a lot of
Japanese clothing has random English words on it, mostly it seems
because the designer likes the way the words look.

Dan, thanks for posting, it was fun.
Awkward text on a variety of things can be found even in the US.
It is frequent at oriental (or some other ethnic) restaurants whose
owners
are not English native speakers (and don't bother to get the menu
proofread). But it also happens with the owners who are English native
speakers (but obviously not writers).
I just saw the menu of this new (to me) franchise:

This one is subtle: with burgers, they serve fires, salads, kids and
shakes.
:-)
I always suspected that kids are much better with an applesauce, so
they
include it here. :-)
Cheers,
Igor
