It's an inferior good, meaning, profits usually increase when the economy is doing poorly, as it is a cheap substitute for other foods. Used cars, used clothing, McDonalds, are all examples of inferior goods. Normal goods are ones that do better when the economy does better. I just learned this in econ yesterday, don't hate.
