This exists already in the form of "ready meals" a.k.a. TV dinners. Fast food shops are already substantially mechanised; huge effots have been made to robotize cooking, but people are still cheaper to hire. It's still nowhere near the quality of home-cooked food.

Yes, there are a lot of garbage microwave food offerings, especially popular with the US population. As a European I'm talking about quality food made with an automated process and end-to-end automation, including ingredient procurement and cleanup.

Not in competition with trash food but with proper food and local ingredients.
