Which is an effective response to the demand for food served expeditiously, consistent portions, and at the lowest price point possible. It is always interesting to read reviews here because the main complaints are about how long it took to get the meal, how much food was served, and how much it cost. I think about how many times I've read complaints about a meal costing $1 more, or calling a $12 burger "pricey". You will pay more for a meal prepared entirely from scratch just because of labor and waste costs.
