I work at a newly opened restaurant and we had photographers come in to take pictures of the food. My friend is in charge of our salad station and created this masterpiece.

Dumb. Mix that shit up so I don't make a mess. Or, provide a large zip lock bag and I'll dump and shake it myself.
The reason most restaurants don't pre-mix salads is because it's easier for the customer to see all the toppings and tell whether they have everything they ordered.
Plus if you asked for no tomato and it came out pre-mixed it'd be a lot harder to pick out the tomatoes.
I'm just saying despite the obvious inconvenience of having to mix your own salad, not doing so would lead to even more inconvenience for you.
No inconvenience for me. I don't have food issues. I eat pretty much everything.
Unfortunately you're not everyone. In fact most people aren't that way.
And people get very angry when their food comes out wrong.
Of course people want their orders to come out correct. That doesn't mean all meals should come out deconstructed for inspection, as the rationale seems to be here.
It's that argument mixed with "humans care more about aesthetics than anything else"
The reality is people care more about something looking good than actually being good. I personally feel like that's the dumbest shit ever, but that's the reality.
That's fair, but tossed salads are beautiful too! I love putting my mouth all over a tossed salad.
