Lucas and Luna dig into the surprisingly brutal economics of restaurant health inspection scores. They explore why a single B grade can cost a restaurant 30 percent of its revenue overnight, how platforms like Yelp and Google have weaponized inspection data, and what the city of Los Angeles learned when it tried to reform its letter-grade system in 2025. Specific case: the downtown L.A. sushi spot that lost $400,000 in three weeks after a surprise citation for a broken refrigerator. No marketing fluff, just the real numbers behind the window placard.
