Sy's??" "Hey, how come pineapple instead of tomato?" asked Mr Cheese, ignor ing him. "Didn't they have any?" "Nope And this pineapple is kinda weird It tastes canned ” The first bite revealed a highly spiced sauce, probably from an old Italian recipe loved by old Italians everywhere "Very good crust!" asserted the anchovy-lover "You like the crust?? Ooooooh!” shivered Mrs Leader "That's one definite like for the crust, one definite dislike.’’ “The ham doesn't look real,’’ said another of the judges. “The pineapple doesn't look real Is this pizza real?” “I don’t know about this one," said the leader. "The Canadian bacon got stuck between my teeth.” “It could just be the bias of being the last one ” ”1 don’t know The spices were pretty strong.
