Question

Alonzo winked at his mother's shocked gaze and with a grin quipped, "Sausage and pepperoni pizza for breakfast makes perfect sense. Tomato is technically a fruit. You have your cheese. Cheese is a dairy product. You have your crust- necessary carbs for quick energy in the morning. And don't forget the sausage and pepperoni- my protein.
