[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These hacks, especially those used on mom and pop local restaurateurs are so tacky. Restaurants have razor thin profit margins.
. The kids meals are meant to be ordered with an adult meal.  Not for cheap adults. If you can't afford to eat out just stay home. [/quote]

So a restaurant would rather have no customer than one who just orders a small meal or an appetizer? When many restaurants are struggling? I'm now in my 50s and don't have the appetite I used to. Should older people only eat at home now too? What an odd business model. [/quote]

Restaurant owner here.  Yes you should just stay home if you're trying to hack a kids meal into an adult's meal.  Kids meals are loss leaders that at offset by the accompanying adult meal. Plus you are taking up a table.  I don't understand why you are dragging  old people into your scheme. We love our customers of all ages![/quote]

Kids meals are HUGE money makers . You can't tell me you're not turning a profit off of a $7.99 kids meal thats a mere 2 chicken tenders and a small scoop of fries[/quote]

I don't serve that kind of food. And I'm telling you [b]kids meals are not profitable.[/b] [/quote]

NP. If you ban children altogether, I'll put your restaurant at the top of my list.[/quote]
