The food service companies like Sysco are charging around $12 for 2.5 lbs of large frozen beer battered onion rings where they would likely get 20 rings per bag, let's say enough for 3 servings, then the restaurant has to cook it in their own oil, plate it, and serve it with a "homemade" aoli and some other garnish. Stuff is pretty expensive now. I think it's hard for any restaurant to make much profit on any menu item that sells for only $7.

Next time we go to Sams or BJ will look but do believe onion rings are much cheaper than that.
