Assuming everyone has the cash for high quality produce, and they don't.

Not because the owners were cruel, because that was all the owner could afford to eat for themselves.
More nonsense, for a start no where have you said you done it for cost. secondly it is cheap. You just need to be a little smarter. Could have one steak or several kilos of tasty meat. Because people are snobby there's a huge price difference between cuts. You can eat high quality and cheaply if you wish.
