Well, you don't use a whole package of crackers and a whole package of eggs
and flours, etc.
You use only 1-2 cups of crackers and perhaps only 2 eggs; then a package of
cheese.
The cheesecake I made yesterday costed to me only about ?3, because I had
the crackers and the eggs of the cheese cake I made before.
2 eggs= 0,40 eurocents
2 cups of crackers=0,25 eurocents
250 gr cheese=1,50 euro
1/4 cup of butter= 0,20 euro cents
1/2 cup sugar=0,8-0,10 eurocents
Tot= 2,45 ?

yes, you must add work and oven.
BTW, remember that dealer must have his gain and generally this gain is more
than 50%
