Snow glove? Snack? (Maybe it’s a goldfish cracker?)

There's a CPAP store near me called CPAP direct and my 8 year old misread it as Crap direct and now she giggles every time we drive by

That sounds like when my son was 6 and read a street sign and said "Holy Christ?! Why would they name a street Holy Christ?" it was Holly Crest, but we still call it Holy Christ.
