Paging An Editor: An Article About Champagne Vinegar?

I think the point of this New York Times article is that Champagne vinegar is good. But that point only shows up in the last two paragraphs: The rest is a stretched analogy about the flip side of Champagne's connotations of luxury. So what is the point of this article, anyway?

I,too, was scratching my head about that column-like "article", about an hour ago. Oh wait, nowadays, this would be a post on a blog.

It's almost as if the author decided that this flipside of Champagne would be an intriguing subject (which I don't disagree about) and then remembered at the very end that the piece was about Champagne vinegar.

Make it about one or the other, just not both with the thinnest connecting thread between the two parts.
