Your "large" soda, sir.

it comes out of the machine ice cold why the fuck would i pay for a drink diluted with ice when its already cold? especially if refills are not free
fuck ice

I like diluted soda

Soda is how most restaurants make their money, since they have the biggest profit margin.

A mcchicken costs $1 to buy, and it probably costs damn near $1 to make also, so you MIGHT make a few cents in profit.

Meanwhile, you're paying $2.00 for a coke that likely cost 5 cents to make.

I prefer lots of ice in my coke. So fuck off

I never get ice in my drinks. I worked at BK for 3 years and an amusement park for 5.

At Bk the ice machines were never cleaned, at the amusement parks it was only cleaned when I started. I found so many bugs and dirt and grime holy fuck.

>letting Mr. Shekelstein get more profit.

Kek, jews must LOVE you go...guy

>>11203757
desu senpai because the ice keeps it cold longer. The only reason you would ask for it w.o ice is so you could have a larger volume of soda, and soda is fuckign gross and horrible for you.

asking for soda w.o ice is a sure sign of a lardass.

>>11203757
Cold soda keeps it's carbonation for longer which is why they add ice as well as serving it ice cold, the reason you get shit loads of ice is workers don't give a shit

>>11203783
You're a fucking idiot.

>>11203802
source your opinion bro otherwise he's correct.

you mad that I gave away your trade secret that everybody already knows?

I own a sucessful restaurant and for someone to say that's how I make my money on the high profit margin of soda is absurd. Soda hasn't been $0.05 per glass in a long time grandpa. Check your figures. Not everyone drinks soda as well. Now if you want to talk about non alcoholic beverages with huge profit margins we can talk about tea. Non alcoholic beverages pay some bills, but to say that's where I make all of my profit? No. It's a small part of it but lower cost menu items make up majority of our profits. Drinks fill in a small gap. Iced tea wins over soda year after year.

>>11203809
By your logic why would anyone even serve food? Or even make any effort to serve decent fare?? So we can rake it in on sodas? Again. You're an idiot

>>11203856
>By your logic why would anyone even serve food?

Because cheap food gets people in the door and asses in the seats.
The big money is made on drinks and everybody knows it.

And no, not JUST soda. But drinks in general.
Huge profit margin on somebody spending $3.00 for a cup of coffee that costs 5 cents to make.

>>11203875
And you know this because? You manage a McDonalds or Burger King?

>>11203786
This guy knows what he’s talking about

>>11203886
It's general knowledge that drinks are more profitable than food. Why does this make you so butthurt exactly?

Not everyone can run their dad’s Panera Bread like you anon

Drinks have a high profit margin cost wise
Profit wise they do not make up the majority percentage of profits

>>11203939
>Profit wise they do not make up the majority percentage of profits
In fast food restaurants they do

>>11203928
If I sell a drink that costs $0.20 and sell it for $3.00 I make a nice profit. Now if I sell a steak I paid $8 for $25 are you trying to tell me that I've made more profit off the drink? Percentage wise sure but I think simple math here disproves your theory.

>>11203849
>but to say that's where I make all of my profit?

No one fucking said that you fat fuck

>>11203949
That's why I made the reference to McDonald's and Burger King. That formula may work for them but not for an actual full service restaurant

>>11203952
Percentage wise it actually doesn't. You don't even know what you're arguing.

>>11203955

Actually you did. Re read your original comment. You summed it all up cut and dry.

>>11203956
Why are you in a thread about a large coke with no ice and want to argue about sit down restaurants. this is clearly about fast food and you're shitting up the place

>>11203961
$17>$2.80
Who gives a shit about percentage when the numbers are obvious

>>11203965
> Is Pepsi fine?
Would only be asked in a sit down restaurant

>>11203972
>Would only be asked in a sit down restaurant
they ask it all the time in the drive-thru

liqour profits must be insane.
I've paid $7 for an entire shot and if you sold 5 shots you could pay for the whole bottle.
