SOC 102: Erewhon is the new Louis Vuitton? - Food as a luxury

From flexing your Lunchables in grade school to the annual Thanksgiving post-your-plate, it’s no surprise that Americans use food as a status symbol. But one has to wonder, what is the history behind this phenomenon and how has the recent spike in grocery prices altered our relationship with food? In this episode of B.S., Gold and Ilyana discuss the modern perception of food as a luxury and how it’s showing up in areas where we least expect it. Grab your popcorn, or Erewhon smoothie, and tune in!
