If it was obviuos perhaps you'd like to say why the child was asking ?

Kids can ask some really embarrassing questions, when they first meet an
unusual situation. When I was around six or seven, travelling on a bus
with just my mother, sat opposite us was a black man, the first I had
ever seen. I said something like 'mam that man's face is black'. I
remember my mother was very embarrassed and apologised to the man. I
remember saying something similar, when I first saw a pregnant woman,
commenting on how fat she was.

"Has that woman had too many pork pies?"

"She's had too much of something!"

Leeky sausage?
