But at the same time, I doubt I would say anything to her. Was probably just meant as a joke or something, it doesn't sound intentionally racist.

I'm surprised staff at the CAB even get training from my experiences there. The one here is rubbish and noone knows what the hell they are talking about and are very very rude and patronising
Ouch, really? Well each branch of the CAB is independently run so I figured each one would be different, but that's quite a shock. The training period at East Durham CAB (Peterlee) lasts about four months. They're quite thorough with it and it's just as well as some of them, the debt advisors especially, have a difficult job on their hands.

Yeah, it was really just a throwaway comment I suppose, but I have a bad habit of ruminating over throwaway comments.
