* Estimate, not a quote: 3 line(s) we couldn't price were filled with typical costs for their type; the video doesn't state how many it serves, so 3 portions were assumed; restaurant comparison is a typical Ontario Italian restaurant plate at ~$21, before delivery fees, tax and tip. Prices: Ontario averages (StatCan 2026-07) + RecipesMD estimates, pro-rated, staples excluded.

From 6 of 8 ingredient lines (100% of the measured weight), divided into 6 servings (estimated: model estimate (no quantities to work from)). Typical amounts assumed for eggplant, olive oil, butter, parmesan cheese, fresh basil, because the video doesn’t say how much. Not counted because the video gives no amount: salt, pepper, provolone cheese. Not matched to nutrient data: crushed tomatoes.
