Potato/po-tahhh-to, Prosecco/Progresso

     Today I had a woman ask if we sold "Progresso by the glass."  Uh....what? I waited for a moment to see if it had been a slip of the tongue, and wondered if she'd correct herself.

Nope.  Not happening. Finally I asked her to clarify, and she looked at me like I was an idiot, she snobbishly replied that it was "like champagne."  Oh really?  You know what Progresso is? Progresso is fuckin soup.
Mm mm, pour me a flute of that chicken noodle.

Prosecco is sparkling white wine.
cheers motherfucker

Once we got that straightened out, I told her that prosecco wasn't on offer by the glass, but we did have cava.  I explained to her that it's quite similar, and she wrinkled her nose as though I'd offered her a glass of cat piss.  

She was probably just disappointed I wasn't able to offer her a chicken noodle mimosa.
