Simply put: a commodity is defined as something that was made through human labor, satisfies a demand, and is produced for the purpose of exchange. If I bake a loaf of bread to eat, then it’s just bread. But if I bake it in order to sell it, then the loaf becomes a commodity
The producer of commodities no longer lives directly on the products of his own labor: on the contrary, he can live only if gets rid of these products
the defining aspect of commodities is that they are produced for exchange
How are they exchanged? What determines their values in relation to other commodities
