"Oh! That kind of weird. Hmm..." He hums to himself while he thinks. Those aren't the toppings he would have picked but he's not the one who will be eating it is he?
"Has me curious too. The big difference is that red is sweet and fruity tasting and the black one is bitter and salty. If I had to guess, it's probably black because I think that would pair better with the tuna."
"Oh, yes. Fish and lemon, for instance, is probably the best pairing you can do. Lots of citrus or tropical fruits work well with fish, but I worry about how it would mix with the cheese and tomato sauce. Red licorice is usually strawberry or raspberry flavor which is a little too sweet in a lot of cases. Picking flavors is an art form of its own, you know?"
"Yes, of course. Only... I wonder if the acquaintance I'm asking about this for might have counterintuitive tastes. I don't really know. Perhaps we could try for something that meets in the middle?"
"Well... I guess I could do half and half. If it's no good your special someone can pick it off." He's got to let go of his food sensibilities for this but, oh, it's hard.
