You could say literally any grain product (even alcohols since the rich tended to favor wines derived from fruit, honey, and other products) is the same thing though since “le peasantry” are often the most invested in the use of grain product to still be full while making use of the scraps of more nutrient rich food sources like meat and lush fruits and greens that the rich don’t gobble up.
You hardly see anyone calling a grilled cheese sandwich a sign of dystopian capitalism, except maybe that one guy with the melt fixation. Also, it’s not exactly like the rich don’t do what your saying even with us proles being granted the “privilege” of red meats, most popular cuts today were yesterday’s pauper cuts, meanwhile the rich are dining on Wagyu cuts that most folks won’t ever be able to excuse buying even in a windfall.
