The food will be ok, there's a relatively small risk of food poisoning, or having an especially shit meal. You know what you're getting.
Same business model as chain hotels and blockbusters starring A-listers with name recognition. Customers know it will be just ok, but that's enough.
This is exactly why I go to McDonald's when I'm anywhere away from home. It's almost always the same, and their corporate side is extremely serious about consistency and quality.
Cracker Barrel took this a step further, providing a generic "home-y" feel anywhere in the country.
Cracker Barrel is atrocious though. Absolutely flavorless. It's the epitome of bland old white people food.
I'd rather eat Applebee's. At least they use salt.
Exactly. Finding good restaurants takes time, too. We had a lot less (none) of that available after we had a kid. So low risk and sticking to what you know makes sense. As she got older we have been able to experiment some.
Risk reduction. Safe choice.
