Food Lion revelation

Charles and I stumbled upon an interesting fact: if you translate the phrase "Food Lion" into Korean, you get a brand name with multiple meanings.

"Food Lion" becomes eumshik saja in Korean. Eumshik means "food" while saja means "lion." But saja also happens to mean "let's buy," which means that eumshik saja can be translated as "Let's buy food!" --truly a clever brand name.
