I can only speak for myself but I’ve eaten at Michelin star restaurants all over the world and enjoy fine dining whenever I have the time and I love it, but sometimes I just want taco bell.
Alcohol, on the other hand; good Scotch and wine has ruined the cheap stuff for me. I can’t drink cheap, or even mediocre, whisky or wine anymore. If it’s not very high quality I’d rather just have something like a gin or vodka cocktail.
My parents had decent taste and decent money when I was a teen. My first interactions with alcohol were expensive wines they were willing to give me a taste of and some expensive liquors I siphoned out of. I am now broke and all the liquor I can afford sucks. Their desire for bourgeois decadence ruined my college indulgences in cheap liquor.

My experience as well. For me, good bread and cheese are my “will not compromise” food
