That's normally called Name Brand, what you are referring to is store brand, which is usually cheaper.

Oreos are not a "luxury".

They are if you eat them with your pinky up

There's only 2 options luxury and staple.

Oreos sure AF aren't a staple

Yes, cookies are not a staple, but oreos are not a "luxury" brand. Eating desserts may be a luxury, however.

Sure. But luxury and luxury brand are too different things. Like ice and ice cream.
