    no, what I’m asking is how a ready to eat food product that is cheaper than the raw materials alternative is considered a luxury in this context

    I understand that ready to eat food itself is somewhat of a luxury, but that is not what is being discussed - what is being discussed is the cost of the food.

      No no, you see when you pay any amount beyond what is absolutely necessary to survive then you are spoiled by luxury. /S
