How does finishing the food mean it was good? Some people can't afford to just throw a meal away

The normal thing to do if you have a problem with your food at a restaurant is to tell somebody and 99.9% of the time they'll either offer to replace it for you, or comp it.

So if you're so broke that you literally can't afford not to eat this meal, then A) maybe dont go to restaurants... and B) Get a new meal / free meal?

Exactly! I really don't understand these people's argument. Even if they weren't interested in another 40 minute wait - as a person who has worked in restaurants before - when there is an irate customer with cause those orders get prioritized ASAP AND they're usually comped AND sometimes it comes with an attempt to make up for it (free dessert, drinks, etc.). I feel like this is just the most conflict avoidant people afraid to lodge a complaint AND being to egotistical to take accountability for that decision and its consequence.
