Today, in front of me in the line at Qdoba:

“What kind of salsa would you like on your burrito, ma’am?”

“I’ll have some pie-ko duh gallow … and some fiery haba-neer-a. And … give me some more of the fiery haba-neer-a.”

I understand the mispronunciation of pico de gallo, but habanero? Even looking past the mistake in the middle of the word, it ends in an “o,” not an “a.” I was also surprised that someone who was mispronouncing habanero (and saying “fiery” in an annoying manner, to boot) would be ordering it by the spoonful. Oh well — good lunchtime entertainment.

For those keeping track, today’s lunch put me up to 3 of the 12 visits necessary for another free entree (I’ve already cashed in two or three since I got my Qdoba card). Three cheers for fast food.
