Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Since Paul and Oscar both initially wanted pistachio but felt unadventurous about ordering the same flavor, if Oscar orders pistachio, Paul is likely to choose a different flavor to avoid matching Oscar's choice. However, since pistachio was his initial preference, he might not be as satisfied with the alternative flavor as he would have been with pistachio.
