the food court is a loss leader to get people to shop in the store, it works.

    yes this is true. I think the soda is probably a profit but less than standard restaurant markups and nowhere near enough to cover the cost of running the food court (making it functionally also a loss)

    also I'd imagine the chicken bake is upcycling the rotisserie chickens into less loss than if they were sold as rotisserie (and certainly more than if they threw them out)

    also I've said loss too many times to not also say :.|:;
