Of course, we're talking about the theoretical side of managing food cost, but this is where we should always begin. And if your COGS percentage is out of whack, there's a good chance your portioning and pricing is to blame. But the good news is that COGS problems are the best problems. Why? Because there are so many levers we can pull to fix the problem. 

We can...

1) Renogiate with our vendors

2) Find a new SKU

3) Find a new vendor

4) Play with portion sizes

5) Increase the price

Hopefully this episode helps pull it all into perspective!
