Help the indecisive diner complete their text message to a friend.
I'm staring at the chocolate cake and the apple pie. I want to order _________________________ of them, but I only have room in my stomach for one!
My friend has a severe nut allergy, and sadly, _________________________ dessert is completely nut-free.
So, we can skip dessert or find another cafe. _________________________ choice is fine with me!
both of them
"Both" refers to the two items together (the cake and the pie).
neither dessert
"Neither" means "not one and not the other." It is used with a singular noun ("dessert") to show that zero out of the two options are safe to eat.
Either choice
"Either" means "one or the other." It is used with a singular noun ("choice") to show that any one of the two options is acceptable.
