Do spelling errors on products bother you?

It doesn’t happen much when I get products to review from countries like Canada, the United States, or Europe. But when I get products to review from China, I catch spelling errors all the time. I especially see it on dog treats when I read instructions or ingredients. “Teeching” instead of teaching, “paus” instead of paws, and other examples make me cringe. I mean, we can’t spell these things correctly? It doesn’t happen on things from Europe, in case you were thinking it’s English not being the native language.
Does it bother you when you see that? It does make me wonder about quality.

It is a bit cringe when they misspell something and then mass produce and print it lol

Some errors are tolerable and some are not. I think such errors indicate that they don't think that language is important in business. The wont pay profesional translator or do some googling

Yeah it bothers me too, if they can't get the label right it makes me wonder what else got rushed. Funny you mention Europe though cause you'd think that would be the bigger language gap. Stuff like "teeching" on a dog treat bag would definitely make me side eye the whole product.
