Let's check Wikipedia's definition:
That does not apply to a pizza made on your order in a sit-down pizzeria where you wait just as long as in other kinds of restaurants.
It does, because it's literally the same. A fast food service still rolls out the dough, adds the tomato sauce, cheese and other ingredients and throws it into the oven for a few minutes. The only difference is that a big delivery service that specializes on pizzas is that they prepare much larger quantities beforehand, as they can expect to use much more than a restaurant.
But since you're such a fan of Wikipedia, you might want to read the fast food article proper:
etc.
Which is the critical difference - "with a strong priority placed on speed of service". If you don't prepare it with a focus on speed, and prepare it in a slow way, serve the customer in a more normal slow setting, then it's not "fast food", because there's nothing "fast" about it.
By that definition nothing is fast food.
No food is inherently fast food. Since you're not American, and we invented fast food, the term refers specifically to how fast and convenient it is to get the food.
Go through the drive through in McDonald's and I can get a hamburger in less than three minutes from order to them handing me the bag. But if I order a hamburger from a sit down diner, it will take 30 minutes sometimes.
The hamburger from McDonald's is fast food. The hamburger from the diner is not.
You're getting onto something.
It's not the type of food, it's the form of preparation and consumption.
It's every food that can be quickly made.
Like ... salad. That's fast food, even if you eat it in a fancy restaurant?
