Michael Perelman quotes:

Grundrisse

Hunger is hunger, but the hunger gratified by cooked meat eaten with a knife and fork is a different hunger from that which bolts down raw meat with the aid of hand, nail and tooth. Production thus produces not only the object but also the manner of consumption, not only objectively but also subjectively. Production thus creates the consumer.

^^^^^ CB: So, for Marx that hunger that is hunger is instinctive UNDERNEATH ( pace Miles Jackson) ; and different peoples have different table manners clothing that instinctive desire for food. Production produces the consumer but not the physiological eater. REproduction produces the eater.
