10. ACI FILE – ONE PROBLEM… FoodPro Product and SQL Data Extract grab Recipes from Cycle, Standard, and ACI Standard Menus Also, the FoodPro Web Product and SQL Data Extract ‘behave’ differently (More to come on that) It is not displayed on the Website for nutritional analysis – this is where ACI Menu comes in!

11. ACI STANDARD MENUS/’MOCK’ MENUS Used to display ACI Items on the website with Nutrition Information  What I call ‘Window Dressing’ – you can be as granular as you want to be  Splenda Packets  Oregano People want more information…if you’re counting calories or adhering to a specific diet, kids/people want to know all nutrition info they can – mobile web app helps at point of service *ACI Seasons drive production*
