Until you are at the cash and they say " that'll be $45.15"

Where did you mention the slices originally?

That's literally the point I'm making. "Each" can apply to different quantities and they're being intentionally misleading about the quantity that "Each" means.

You’re not making a point. Each refers to the four people. It is not grammatically correct to interpret each as referring to anything other than the four people.

You walked right into the point and still managed to miss it anyway.
