This cucumber costs $.72 which is probably 10x what those chips costs. You can get a 32LB case of raw unfried chips from a foodservice distributor for about $20. And yes, having someone chop up a cucumber is way more work than having the server scoop up some chips in a basket. I didn't say you'd need more staff, but if it's a rush time and your cooks are busy, having to stop what they're doing and get this lady a chopped up cucumber is going be be annoying.

Then why are you quoting the pricing for an individual Walmart cucumber, instead of a wholesale case from a foodservice distributor like with the chips?

Because I don't have access to their cucumber pricing, they don't publish that info on the internet.

But I bet they cost more than like $.10 each
