I was happy to wait an hour and a bit for delivery when dial-a-pizza and the local Chinese restaurant were the only places around that did it.

The food industry is over-optimising for speed. Especially drive-throughs. Every time I've been through one recently the order has come out almost instantly, but made wrong.

Absolutely! Good food needs time. It's no wonder that we eat shit when we think it has to be prepared in 5 minutes and delivered in 30.
