Moral Fibre
Presumably a ‘moral’ diet includes a lot of fibre. You know, vegetables and stuff. No delicious, cute little lambs or furry bunnies or anything – no way. Spotted in Berkamsted UK by Lydia Woodroff.
Lettuce Inn
Lettuce take a moment to ponder how often ‘lettuce’ is used in Pun Shop Names. This produce market was spotted by first time punter Mel Campbell in Shoalhaven Heads NSW.
Food for Thought
I feel we’ve hit a bit of a lull. Yes, yes… I get it. But surely if you’re going to jump the train into the wonderful world of Pun Shop Names, this is the first stop? Why get off here? Why not take the ride all the way to The Hall of Fame? Again, I’m posting this as a warning. Let’s all pull up our socks. Spotted by Janet and Simon O’Brien in Mt. Gambier SA – a town I feel we’ve totally tapped out.
She’s Apples
I wonder if this translates for our international readers? I had imagined ‘she’s apples’ to be a uniquely Australian expression, meaning ‘everything is OK’. Regardless, using it as a PSN for a fruit shop is absolutely ‘apples’, in my opinion. Found in Mt Gambier, South Australia by Janet O’Brien.
The Salad Servers
If they don’t serve you salad, give The Salad Servers a serve. This delicious Pun Shop Name was spotted in Penhurst NSW by Lillian Hafez.
Lettuce Deliver
Adding to our surprisingly large collection of ‘lettuce puns‘ is this specialist in vegetable delivery. Spotted near the airport in Botany NSW.
Adam’s Apple
Keep your eyes peeled for an Adam’s Apple when travelling to Bangkok, and also in West Lakes SA. Well done to Simon O’Brien for spotting this great Pun Shop Name for a fruit and vegetable market.
Dig Inn
Dig in at the Dig Inn. Dig? Sent in simultaneously by two groovy Aussies in New York, Marc Burns and Linda Saffioti. You two should hang out here.
Lifethyme Natural Market
I’m pretty selective about which PSNs make it onto the blog. If they’re a bit weak they normally don’t make these esteemed pages. This one was teetering on the edge, but the flying fruit got it over the line. Well done Marc Burns for spotting it on 6th Ave, New York. And for the camera work.
Lettuce Inn
Lettuce Inn! Lettuce Inn! We urgently need fruit and vegetables! Spotted in Hurstbridge VIC by first time punter David Johnson.
A Leap of Taste
New contributor Rhonda has stumbled across the mythical town of Klamath Falls in Oregon USA, where every shop has a Pun Name. Here’s the first.. probably the longest bow, but we’re prepared to take that ‘leap of faith’.
Wild Thyme
Boy, those organic grocers sure know how to have a Wild Thyme. When it comes to a wild time, though – they’re duds. Spotted in North Adelaide SA.
