Why are there "all you can eat" buffets if you can't really eat all that you might ever want to eat?

- Dylan16807 12y ago...because "all you can eat" is not the same as "all you want to eat" A buffet doesn't have to limit anyone's consumption to keep them at reasonable levels. Just like you can have broadband service with unlimited traffic. But storage is relatively expensive and can have quadratic cost if it's being constantly filled. It's a risky place to do actual "unlimited", and pretend "unlimited" is scummy.
