Grocery stores and apostrophe catastrophes go hand in hand. In fact, the errant apostrophe is sometimes called the greengrocer's apostrophe. So I wasn't surprised to receive an e-mail from Keegan in Lexington, KY, with this photo from a Kroger supermarket attached:
Mmm... pie. I need a snack.
Thanks, Keegan!
