If we accept the definition (offered by the physicist David Bohm) that culture is shared meaning, then the answer depends on your cultural values. In Turkey, for example, the term for the money you make to cover the costs you must have to live is "ekmek parasi," or literally "bread money." Though similar to America's phrase, "bread and butter", the Turkish one actually reflects a cultural culinary reality: one does not sit down to a table without bread.

Sad is the culture that considers bread a luxury.
