Pest-no

The other day at the grocery store, I couldn't find the pesto. It wasn't with the other pasta sauces, so I asked a store employee where it was.

His response?

"Where's who?"

Pesto. It's not a person.

"Oh, is that like a rat poison or something?"

Whaaa?? Definitely laughed out loud in his face because I thought he was making a funny. Turns out he was dead (like the rodent that ate the pesto) serious.
