My (well-to-do) Costa Rican roommate at MIT (decades ago) thought of fresh food as pedestrian and canned food as a delicacy. At home he always had fresh food, and the only canned food was imported.
His favorite: canned peas.
My poor roommate once got suckered in, however. He brought home a small can of tuna in sauce. Before he ate it, I told him it was cat food. He couldn’t believe that people would buy canned food for their pets.
