This, fam. When I was in school the price outweighed if it was the most nutritious thing. I'm happy sis is winning but I heard her stuff is a bit pricey. Not shocked college students voted for the more affordable taco restaurant
Exactly

Failing to price your products fairly and not grasping your market segments are sure ways to lose customers.
A local organization in my city, which shall remain unnamed, paid her over 20 racks for a lousy speech.
Wasn’t the white owned impossible burgers more expensive than regular burglars? Isn’t it always talked about how vegan food is more expensive than regular food? So I’m trying to fig out how did someone expect a vegan restaurant to be cheap especially a black 1?

College students are poor, you can't charge them that kind of money for food to buy on campus. The price needs to be affordable and fair for college students.

Nobody would complain if they went to a regular slutty vegan joint to buy food since that's the price everyone has to pay.

It’s not a Black or white thing.
It really is.. spellman is what kinda college again? I’m pretty sure they got slutty vegan cause it being a black owned restaurant.. black college, black bizz.. inspirational, supporting black biz, networking, etc.. they got rid of it due to economics and instead of maybe looking for a black alternative got a white own biz instead

yet they will pay any price crakkas set.

I liked the food when my daughter took me there while visiting. It wasn't on any campus and there was a young brother outside their spot selling lemonade.
It's really not about black and white, the prices are high as fuck whether it's a black business or CAC business is point of what we're saying. The prices needs to be affordable and fair for college students because they don't have a lot of money.

How much are they spending at Juicy Crab, which is always full of students whenever I'm there?

Is it too much for all college students or some ?

I'd be curious, since if the business isn't doing enough business, they would have left

Shit Starbucks costs too much for college students but I don't see them not lining up.

I don't understand why this is a story,if you don't want to pay that price then don't

Yes. You don’t want a lil ass drink with lack of juiciness :lol: It was good but I never went back. That’s 10 wings are 3 beers at my spot.
Well at least you got a large drink and fries with that because I would've been mad as fuck getting a small drink and fries for that price.. :lol:

To show you visual proof that it’s not a Black or white thing.

You didn’t get it so I’ll let it go.
So slutty vegan being the only black owned restaurant on the list got canned for its prices and couldnt get replaced by another black biz? Starbucks not cheap.. spellman is a black college and if I’m not mistaken the owner gave a graduating class all business licenses.. like I said being a black biz and a black college she had a location there


i stand corrected it was Clark atlanta graduates llcs

Its an option not the only one.

and how do you know what the students can afford?

Do you believe if the business wasn't making money they would still be there ?

they knew what the prices were when they brought it to campus

Starbucks don't lower prices when they have spots on campuses.
