Question

How much money are fast food restaurants saving by not putting tomotoes on the sandwiches?

Answer 1

Preventing you from getting salemonella poisoning...have you heard the news?

Answer 2

They are most likely losing money overall from having to dump inventory, they are certainly not saving any money.

Answer 3

I work with food and they are saving the customer's health who cares that a you don't have a tomato on your sandwich that is going to make you sick or possibly die.  Tomato's are such a low cost item that I believe that they are not loosing any money.

Answer 4

They're not saving any money right now because they had to dump tomatoes they already bought. Maybe if it goes on long enough, they'll save a little from not buying them. But they may lose sales.

Answer 5

Millions in litigation fees.

Answer 6

I dunno, but probably a boatload of law suites and health department checks! :D

Answer 7

We have tomatoes again, but I did not save any money.  I had to throw out 200lbs of tomatoes.
