Food costs are crucial for quick-service restaurants, where small inefficiencies can quickly add up and eat into your bottom line. With more precise food cost management, you can eliminate excess inventory and decrease waste, increasing margins at every restaurant. The goal is to identify items which experienced a larger than expected price change. If changes in market conditions do not explain the change then the supplier will be asked to address the reasons. The goal is to catch price issues between audits and let the supplier know that this customer is watching carefully.

The blog post covers an all too common incident with the issue of unruly children in restaurants. Often many parents allow their children to run amuck and cause a simply dining experience into chaos. The issue with children creating a distraction with bad behavior relies on the parents and their lack of effective discipline. Unfortunately, becoming a parent requires only fertility and little, if any education for preperation for parenthood.
Key Takeaways:
- Over the years, I have often made the claim that “I hate children.” While it is certainly enjoyable to proclaim such a statement, many people have corrected me and said that what I should be saying is “I hate shitty parents.” Fine. I hate shitty parents.
- Hey, shitty parents: wake the fuck up. Nobody wants to go to a restaurant and see your kids behave like wild animals.
- es, I might hate children, but my hate stems from the parent who cannot be bothered to do their damn job and raise their child to be a responsible human being with a modicum of manners.
“As long as you can figure out a way to drop a hot load onto an egg and get it all fertilized up, you can make a baby! No permits, no education, no license and no guarantee of responsibility! Have fun!”
