Answer 2

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

In the given sentence, the nouns are "toppings," "pepperoni," "Italian sausage," "olives," "peppers," "onions," and "mushrooms." The words "black" and "green" are indeed adjectives used to describe the type or color of the olives and peppers respectively. Therefore, if you are specifically looking for the nouns, you would leave out the colors as they are just describing words (adjectives).
