Interesting. Yea, the snob, chauvinist argument, or from a more positive perspective a healthy habit of caring more about food quality and a willingness to pay for it as opposed to saving money for expensive cars, is also high on my list. It also changes the dynamics from competition on lowest price to competition on quality—sometimes probably allowing for much higher margins than what you could get for the same product in Germany.
