I believe that many of the foods that have gained acceptance by the
general population who are above the poverty level once started out as
being only for those at the bottom end of the scale.  Collard greens,
spareribs, pork cracklings and chicken wings may be examples.  Perhaps
others here can name other foods that gained such popularity, along with
the resultant rise in prices.
