I did not go to the AYCE- the author of this article did.

Why is everyone assuming the author intended to waste the food? You're assuming a malicious actor, when instead they were at best a foolish one. They ordered more food than they could eat. They didn't order food with the intent to destroy it or harm the business.

Having an all you can eat promo guarantees customers will not behave perfectly because the normal routine of ordering and eating being paired to price and consumption is discarded (flat price).

If the business is worried about spiralling food waste they should reconsider the promo as it is inherently wasteful compared to other dining standards. If they want to keep the promo they should pace delivery of food to anticipate customer behavior.

Suggesting an ignorant / mistaken customer is a "bitch" who needs to be "slapped into next week" is yikes.

I didn't say that at all, in any way

They were greedy, then when called out on it, reacted by trying to damage a small business

There's no better description of A Bitch ©®™

Secondly, I said that the owner would be right to want to slap a bitch into next week, not me. If you'd ever run a business you'd feel the same

You clearly haven't
