Social class determines someone’s social status weather they’re rich, poor or in the middle. So someone in the lower class can’t afford the same things as people in the higher classes since they have less money. For people in the lower class struggle to survive and pay for food, But people in the upper classes don’t have to worry because they can afford to buy nice clothes and food

Qualitative studies on food beliefs show that lower-class mothers consider health less frequently in their choice of food, while they take the preferences of family members and expenses more often into account than their middle-class counterparts.
