The shop you’re visiting may not be run by Vietnamese people but if it was.... I could empathize with wanting to use high quality pate or BBQ pork, organic vegetables, etc.
My point is that the cheap pork and ugly veggies will taste better
I think you're mistaking the factual assertion that the $3 bahn mi tastes better (which you know is true because you live here) with everyone's shared desire that people earn a living wage. In that better world, the dynamic will still hold, just at a higher price level
As my 84-year-old Viet mama says, “Tiền nào của nấy” (You get what you pay for). If people are willing to pay $10 to $15 for a burger or pastrami sandwich, why not for banh mi?
