In principle it should be fine. America is car hell, lunch breaks are short if you even get them, often you flat out don't have time to go get a meal, or are extrmely limited in your options.

If the delivery workers were properly compensated, the cars were company issue, the company paid for the gas, they got regular hours, etc etc it wouldn't be worse than any other capitalist job, albeit more dangerous because driving.

But this is capitalism so fuck those workers, it's all hyper-exploitative gig economy shit.

But some, maybe a lot, of workers are put in a position where having someone bring food to them can be really helpful.

Idk if this is even part of cultural memory anymore but there was a time when many if not most factories, office buildings, and other places that employeed a lot of people in the us had cafeterias where workers ate. Like on site, in the building. You just go down to the ground floor and there's a cafeteria with freshly made food. Maybe good, maybe bad, but it was there. That shit all disapeared when the auto-cannibalism started in the 80s.

Now people have to go downstairs, go to their car, drive to a store, order, wait for their food, drive back to work. If you're not near food places you may not have enough time to eat, or even to get food at all and you're stuck with whatever you can bring from home. And as much as people try to trivialize it making food that tastes good at home requires skill, it takes time, and you need to have enough spoons to do it every day.
