    Some of the best tasting food is cheap, such as fast food. Not healthy, but delicious and inexpensive. hahaha

    But when you become rich, you must adopt to certain preferances right? example:a rich person must charter some flight as can't be on same flight status as poor. correct?

    so therefore even though we may enjoy still same cheapish foods we might have to eat what those elites eat to stay involved with them.....

    see my meaning?

    I will eat anything I want to. :D I mean whatever I like to eat doesn't matter I am at home or party! And at party its obvious that you are gonna get everything good only.
    And if you are going to a high class party, things to eat would be better only. :p

    Graham crackers have nothing to do with being poor. They're just another delicious cracker. As for ramen noodles, I definitely wouldn't eat them as I don't now. They're cheap because they're not nearly as good. There are way better noodles that you can get also at WalMart or Target or wherever you shop. It has nothing to do with class. If they were cheap, but awesome, I'd definitely eat them. I can see eating certain high end restaurants due to them having superior foods in many cases and also foods that you can't get at a lower end restaurant. However, not eating cheaper foods that are just as good for the sake of eating name brands is just arrogance and haughty attitude. If the quality is just as good, there's no point just spending more for the name brand. In the case of Ramen, it's not as good so, no I wouldn't eat it.

    I might go for the more expensive brands if I knew they were healther than the ones I'm currently using.
    I would also buy more fresh ingredients.

    No, that is not correct.

    Take Steve Jobs for instance, since you already know about him. He was worth billions of dollars and lived in an ordinary house on a regular street. He did not live in some gated community or enormous mansion. Obviously some very wealthy people do live differently. If your question is asking if people have to change when they become rich or can't be with common folk, then it is obviously false. People can act or behave however they wish. It would be silly to think that people would deny themselves the best doctors and best hospitals and nice stuff generally when they can easily afford it. But you are suggesting that they stay away from "poor" people, or eat certain food just to impress other rich people. Only a highly insecure person would act that way.

    There was an interesting story about Pakistan tangentially related to this topic. You might find it interesting.

    status doesn't matter to have your food o.k, and that to it depends upon the people how they behave when they get money in the middle. enjoy what ever u like to have.
