Also uhhhh yeah as someone mentioned the cost of food increases so why does the tip percentage also increase?

So the other option is that the owner pays their staff more and the costs are covered by.......aliens??
If restaurant wages went up and tipping was removed across the board prices would likely remain fairly similar to where they are now when you factor the tip in.
