L&P spelling blunder earns Trade Me charity auctionDOMINICO ZAPATA/STUFF Foodbank New Zealand have found the silver lining in L&P's "Cook Straight" mishap. A bidding war could be on the cards for a dozen L&P cans with botched labels. But the spelling blunder is proving fruitful for Foodbank New Zealand, who nabbed a dozen of the cans to auction on Trade Me as "antiques and collectibles". Foodbank NZ executive director Craig Stephenson - who put the L&P cans on Trade Me - recently stumbled across the cans and took a punt in putting them on Trade Me. Unusual collectible listings like the 'Cook Straight' L&P cans are often a hit, Trade Me spokeswoman Millie Silvester said in a statement.
