The buffet - why have them?

Now I am one who like to eat random things, especially off other people's plates (thanks Wendy & Patty). But I question and frankly wish that we rid the world of buffet's...I know that sounds like a contradiction but here is my reason(s) - we always get the stuff you would never pay full price for (seafood, funny salads, fruit, and crazy fried things). And when you pile this all on to a plate it is a sure sign of disaster and stomach issues...get where I'm going with this. Why should we inflict our human race to such torture? It also tends to make a person overwhelmed at the sight of so many choice almost to a point where you take your plate back to the table and are stressed as to what you have, where to start, what to get next and how much time do you have to eat. This should not occur all because of a daily meal, those emotions should be saved for family holiday meals. When it is all said and done you feel worked over and sick to your stomach because you are recounting what you just put in your mouth. So, I say rid the world of buffet's!
