He likes fish, beef and eggs. He eats a lot of fruit and vegetables, too. He hardly ever eats junk food. Jack says he can’t be fat, or he can’t run fast. Robert is a sumo
wrestler (相撲手). He weighs more than 150 kg, because he eats a lot and sleeps a long time. Robert only has lunch and supper every day, but he eats much.
