I’m not sure if this is the guy I’m thinking of, but at least one roadside vegetable seller does this sort of thing deliberately. After all, a sign with such… unique spelling is much more attention grabbing than a simple list of vegetables.
A lot of them do, especially the secretly commercial stands that are getting all too common. Like the cat says, “you are not immune to propaganda advertising”.
The consultant and artist who conceived and realized that sign both went to Yale. The company who holds a regulatory-captured monopoly on all Texas roadside produce stands paid their agency $6.5M for this design.
And just because I made this up, doesn’t mean it’s not true.

I think you mean they went to Y’aIl.
People do it online all the time. Back in reddit days (pre-fediverse), I never saw a front page post without some grammatical or spelling mishap.
Spelling errors were frequent, but they got pushed out of meta by just asking a question.
“Here’s a screenshot from [game]. What’s your favourite?”
…and everyone proceeds to just post their fav game without reading any other comments and the post shoots up to the top of /r/all
Oh no, rage bait posts have come to real life.
