What this page is for
A choice group is a named set of alternatives, such as any side or any soft drink. It is written once here, then pointed at from a recipe line of any combo that offers it, as a Choice group component on the recipe. Only the alternative the guest actually picks leaves stock.
A price supplement for one alternative, if the combo charges more for it, is set by a price change, not here.
You see this page if your role can view the catalogue; adding and editing need a role that can manage the catalogue.

Worked examples
Restaurant and bar
The Acacia Grill & Bar writes Any side with alternatives Chips, Rice and Ugali (maize meal), and points every main course combo's recipe at it, so each guest's choice depletes only the side they actually ate.
Supermarket
A supermarket with a small deli counter writes Any soft drink for its lunch combo, offering Coca-Cola 500ml, Sprite 500ml and Fanta Orange 500ml as alternatives.
