Sure a restaurant can make them for cheaper from scratch if you don't consider labor costs. Also, with the current labor situation, you're unlikely to find suitable kitchen staff that could consistently make presentable onion rings from scratch without disappointing customers. The stuff from the food service companies isn't that bad, and makes it much easier for restaurants to provide a consistent experience with minimally trained kitchen staff.

Are they fast food or a restaurant?
Even the country clubs in TV use food service stuff to quite an extent. Do you think those fries that come with your $10 burger are hand cut from scratch and cooked made to order?

It's a necessary evil. People want to get meals served to them without paying much, restaurants want to serve people food without spending much.
