did you know that communist party cadres in china even today have access to an exclusive food distribution system with fancier products, and which allowed them to not starve during the great leap forward
apparently this is like the chinese equivalent of a royal warrant of appointment in some sense, so claiming your product is one of these exclusive products is a marketing point, except the communist party is embarrassed about it so they do not want you to do this lmao
it is sometimes argued that this is one cause of china's food safety scandals: the elite do not have to eat the same food as normal people
