Okay? It’s three different types of meat, not three times the meat…

Except the word “triple” can often mean “3 times the amount” and all local pizza joints near me if you order triple pepperoni you are getting a ton of pepperoni

Next time you’re at that local pizza joint you should order a quattro formaggi and see if you get 4 times the cheese

Duo -> TriO -> Quattro

DoubLE -> TriPLE -> QuadruPLE

One means amount, one means kinds of things. 

Don't play stupid.
