Todd: OK, Diana, we're going to talk about food. You were just talking about food in Chicago. What kind of good food can you get in Chicago?

Dianna: Chicago is famous for its Chicago style pizza or their hotdogs. The pizza is different because they put the sauce on top I guess, and like they have just amazingly huge toppings like sausages the size of your hand.

Todd: Wow, seriously. Whoa! What other toppings can you find on a pizza?

Dianna: Just normal pizza toppings like mushrooms and pepperoni, lots and lots of cheese, tomatoes, feta cheese is my favorite, it's kind of weird but it tastes good.

Todd: I love feta cheese. Nice. OK. What is your favorite topping?

Dianna: My favorite topping on pizza is weird but I like pineapple.

Todd: Oh, yeah.

Dianna: Yeah I love it. It tastes good with cheese and sauce.
