Social Commentary in Bioshock

Going through Bioshock, I notice the vending machine in the Fleet Hall Theater. Like normal, I check out the contents. Without hacking the machine, it sells:

Creme-filled Cakes for $80
Pep Bars for $320
Potato Chips for $160


Everywhere else in the city, the prices are far more reasonable. Perhaps it's to be expected that when you're in the theater, prices of snacks are outrageous. I wonder if 2K learned a few lessons about social commentary from Rockstar. Hopefully Sander Cohen isn't too upset that I brought my own health regeneration into the theater and I won't be buying his.
