Video Notes on Should Paper Be Part of My Recipe Costing Card:
You're going to love this - the answer is yes and no.
Here is how to determine whether it's a yes or a no.
If you use the paper product 100 percent of the time in your recipe, then the answer is yes. An example would be if you sell street tacos from a taco truck. You can't hand tacos over in the palm of your hand. You probably have paper to wrap those tacos. That paper is included in your recipe costing card.
What about a pizza place? Fifty percent of your pizzas are carryout or for leftovers. Well, although it might pain you to hand out a pizza box for half a pizza, you don't build that paper cost into your recipe costing card because it's not part of the recipe. If you include that, it's like padding your recipe to give you a higher ideal food cost. When you are collecting that money in that recipe, it's hiding any kind of theft, waste or spoilage that might be happening.
So, it's a yes/no answer. Paper should only be included in your recipe costing card if you use paper 100% of the time with that recipe.
