Optimizing Food Menu Prices and Ingredients

The provided assignment details a project that aims to optimize the prices and ingredients of a food menu. The project involves analyzing two dishes: 'Tasty Chocolate Pretzels' and 'Tuna and Kale Rice Salad with Sesame Soy Dressing'. For each dish, a table is presented listing the specific ingredients, weight per unit, cost per unit, and actual cost. Based on feedback from health professionals, the amount of low-fat ingredients like brown rice will be increased to reduce fat content in the dishes. Similarly, for 'Tasty Chocolate Pretzels', the amount of sweet ingredients such as honey will be removed due to having more sweetness in the ingredient. The project aims to implement these changes and report on the actual cost savings achieved after optimization.
