luxury brands?

When the product isn't really that good but you pay a lot more just because there's "Oreo's" written on the product for example.

That's normally called Name Brand, what you are referring to is store brand, which is usually cheaper.

Oreos are not a "luxury".

They also aren’t a necessity.

Yes they are lol. What planet u live on?

There's only 2 options luxury and staple.

Oreos sure AF aren't a staple

Yes, cookies are not a staple, but oreos are not a "luxury" brand. Eating desserts may be a luxury, however.

Sure. But luxury and luxury brand are too different things. Like ice and ice cream.
