Do you think maybe part of the fiscal restraint comes from them not having much money? In the US people frequent chains that cost much more than cheaper options because it’s still affordable food for their income level. More expensive restaurants get the same reaction in the US. (Why pay $30 for a meal when I can get one for $10.) I don’t see it as a cultural difference so much as a result of what the article is referring to.
