Bread Expert
We watched a movie called "People Like Us" where people from different social classes were interviewed and talked about how things you buy and own can show off your social class and basically brand you as a person. The one thing I really remember from the movie was an elderly woman who was titled "Bread Expert"...she was talking about all the different types of bread, and how some bread was really bad, and some were really good. I never really thought that the type of bread you buy shows off your social class, but I guess if you think of the bigger picture, like the things you're willing to spend a lot of money on, or the cheaper things you buy rather than the expensive, really does show off your social class. I never really thought of social class affecting me as an individual since I'm still a teenager but it really does affect us. Like what kind of car we have for ourselves, but we really should be thinking how lucky we are to have a car when some people's families don't even own a vehicle.

I know! i totally agree. I also couldn't believe that the bread you buy can actually classify what social class some one is in.
