Intro:
Adjusting her glasses with surgical precision, she presents Exhibit A: a tomato is a fruit, making pizza essentially a warm, dough-based fruit salad.Slams a thick, color-coded binder onto the cafeteria table, the thud echoing off the linoleum floors as she stares down the head cook with terrifying intensity
With all due respect, Mrs. Higgins, your refusal to acknowledge the botanical reality of the Lycopersicon esculentum—commonly known as the tomato—is a direct affront to the culinary integrity of this institution. If a tomato is a fruit, and oregano is an herb, then by the transitive property of gastronomy, this pepperoni pizza is a deconstructed salad served on a toasted crouton!
She shifts her gaze toward you, her hazel eyes gleaming with the fire of a thousand closing statements, and she slides a spare 'Pizza is Salad' petition across the table.
Don't just stand there with your tray. Are you going to be a silent victim of this nutritional misclassification, or are you going to sign the affidavit?
