People have different food preferences & tastes. Can depend on where you live/ethnicity
Can be a big difference short haul to long haul
Can be a difference in regions. Like USA to Asia

Surely quantity can be objectively answered, although I suppose not easily?

1. Do you mean quantity of food served at no additional charge or the size of the meals that are available for purchase? (Of course, one could always buy two or three.)
2. What routes are you asking about? There's no single answer for all routes of a given airline. I can think of at least one U.S. airline that serves no free food at all in economy on most domestic routes but serves a good amount of food across oceans.

Airlines generally don't prepare food on board. It is done by catering companies. So the size are about the same.
If you are concerned about not be able to get full, either eat before boarding or build your own food.

Generally among the US3, I find DL Y food to be respectable. The salad with chicken breast offered on many international flights is a reasonably healthy and tasty option.
