For all menu categories, menu items, modifier groups, and modifiers, there is a Name and and Internal Name. The Internal Name is used for back of house purposes only. Customers will only see the Name, which you can think of as the customer-facing name. The Internal Name is what will show up on order print outs so if you're using shorthand descriptions for the kitchen, that's an instance when you'd change the Internal Name.
