I don't know how prolific it is, but there have been cases "proper"
restaurants preparing meals or at least parts of meals ahead of time,
I agree that criteria should be dropped and instead focus on the
average time the customer expect before receiving their meal.

Apart from junk food fans, there is the case of consistency, even if
it isn't consistently great it might be the lesser of other evils, for
example if you are used to having breakfast cereals with low amounts
of sugar in your culture and you end up in one that doesn't eat
anything but pure sugar as if it's going out of fashion for breakfast
you might get an inkling of where I'm coming from.
