You need only take one or two bites to judge quality, then toss the rest.
But what if there's a nail, piece of plastic, raw center, etc. in the remainder of the food? Are you cheating the client by just taking one bite? Granted, many normal customers don't eat their entire meal or every last fry and toss some of it, but certainly not 90% of their burger.
Also, is it not just food waste to throw away most of the meal?
I do agree with you that $5 type shops for fast food just aren't worth it. The gas, mileage, time, opportunity cost, report time, labor, etc. make it not worthwhile. At least, it's not worth it to me. Maybe for others it's worthwhile and economical.
But if a person needs:
car
cell phone with data
computer w/ internet service
printer/scanner
To complete a shop that requires driving outside, buying something, and doing a report afterwards to be paid two months later, then it's hard to see how they'd survive on these shops.
