I'm hosting a barbecue for 10 meat-eaters, 2 vegetarians, and 3 children. We want burgers and corn on the cob. It's going to be hot weather, we'll use charcoal, and we need a full list including drinks and supplies.

Here is your complete shopping list: - Food: 3.5kg Burgers, 1.2kg Corn on the cob, 1.5kg Vegetarian patties. - Beverages: 15 Liters of Soda, 10kg of Ice. - Hardware: 2kg Charcoal, 15 Plates, 15 Sets of Cutlery, 20 Napkins.

How much ice do I need for 20 people drinking soda for 4 hours in hot weather?

You will need 12kg of ice (approximately 3 bags) to keep the drinks cold for 4 hours in hot weather.

Calculate the food needed for 5 meat-eaters and 5 vegetarians with a menu of hot dogs and veggie skewers.

You will need 1.8kg of Hot dogs and 1.2kg of Veggie skewers.

The engine uses guest demographics--meat-eaters, vegetarians, and children--to scale portions and applies a safety buffer to ensure you don't run out of food.
