I am interested as to who uses Roma. I do and I am paying CME + 10% ( which sucks when cheese goes up) + a " production fee" …who has that??? I will assume the production fee is for dicing my cheese…right? :? Right now it comes to about 2.49 lb does that seem high? I use a Roma blend…90%mozz...

I had the same problem and it was my supplier. They use some sort of preservative and if they use too much it makes the lettuce smell really bad ( like the preservative) and gets really wet in a short period of time. Talk to them and make sure they are shredding it same day you are getting it...

Really good news. Bids and offers are both lower than final contracts for today. So it will be down again tomorrow. I am feeling 1.50 just around the corner before if finally recovers to around 1.58 a pound. It will be an overcorrection in the short term. Watch for the phantom bids with no...

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this is gonna be fun@!!! :o

I dropped 20oz 3 years ago…saved my food costs 3%. Employees were drinking it like water and I could not get them at every turn. Now they hate having to carry around that 2 liter …but it is also easier to track so it’s great. I realized in my area delivery was going to be the only way to make...

Well Here we go!!! Another 3 cents today…what’s the big news? 10 Loads of Barrels moved today each a lower price…I see a big correction taking place…if what I have been reading is true…the supply and demand stuff that has been thrown around is about to be shone the door. Real, justifiable...

Problem is I can’t get my customers to buy a $30 pizza yet 🙂

That is my point. It’s down because the artificial price can’t hold up and it’s coming to a head. And now maybe things will loosen up. I think computer companies and TV manufacturers would like speculators to start investing in thier products…I have seen the average price of these items drop by...

Well if you read the tea leaves there is a lot strain in agriculture right now. A ton of speculator money has poured into the market just like oil and others and is bastardizing everything. Now that everthing is coming to a head…because even the farmers are complaining. Alot of the elevators...

Rule #1…NEVER leave post it notes denigrating prior shift performance …let me say that again NEVER! Clear? hehe :lol: Rule#2…Respect is a two-way street…kidof a ying and yang thing…goes around comes around… I have run my two shops for close to 6 years now and I hate managers that " delagate"...

I am a little befuddled. Just Wondering how you figure your prices from your supplier…I am CME weekly avg + is this how you do it and if so what is the over you pay…if you don’t mine me asking. Thanks

Well I hope you don’t think I am beating a dead horse…but the only reason I jumped in is I have never seen such dramatic jumps. Even gas moves slower. Buy that is the way it is. Since the economy is slowing I have noticed a real increase in my coupons…I am getting alot more. They used to be...

Well all I can tell you is I am getting tired of 20 and 30 cent swings on the CME. It makes it really hard to factor your food costs when the main ingredient can move so much in one day! :roll: When I first started in this business cheese was pretty reasonable. But it is insane now. So I will...

I use parchment papers under all my pizza’s. They are a little pricey but I can tell my customers that my pizza’s are cooked on a stone but never really " touch" it. SO they don’t have to worry about what other stuff is on the stones.

😃 laweegie How do you get your post office to mail a " route" for you? Can you just walk in and ask or do you need to purchase a bulk account from them?

Re: Female Drivers Get Bigger Tips than there male associate I will say that they get worse tips…at least in my experience. At both my locations the girls always get 90% the tips of what the guys do. I don’t know why but they do.

Well a little bit on my experience with a franchise. I have two stores in a chain and I will tell you it has been an experience. I have made my share of mistakes…Like I always tell my employees " just because I opened a business does not mean I suddenly was annointed with 250 IQ" The thing I...

I’ll take a guess… Dough not ready…no prep work done, then people call in…sick :?

Without a USP you are just a pizza shop. So why buy from you? What makes yours different. Are you trying to attract the customer that wants fast and cheap pizza without regards to taste USP= Fast easy and cheap! Or are you trying to attract the customer that is willing to pay a little more for...

How bout… pizza is like s*x…even if it’s not that good it’s okay 🙂 But seriously…the word love is more endearing then like…I’d use that one!
