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.

20 onion rings weigh 2.5 pounds? I'll bet it's closer to a half pound.
