Meanwhile, mistakes on restaurant menus are more often related to simple typos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The engagement of a good editor, or even a basic spell check, could save businesses much embarrassment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my personal life, I have learned to, based on the company I keep, withhold any comments on the mistakes I spot.
