If you see someone stealing food, no, you didn’t.

Depends on the food. Not going to be overly sympathetic to someone stealing caviar and steak.

Folklore says steaks can easily be converted to cash and that’s why they are more heavily guarded. Not so sure about caviar though.

Where I live there are frequently people that come into pubs to sell things that were clearly stolen from the nearby Morrisons.
I’ve found blocks of cheese to be an extremely frequently stolen item.
Makes sense. Fairly easy to conceal, surprisingly expensive (depending on what you get, like £8-16 per kilo), doesn’t usually come with security tags like steaks often do, and there’s lots of potential buyers for cheese since it’s used in a lot of things and it’s bloody lovely.

Ex-barstaff come assistant manager here from a local boozer from many, many years ago.
We had a rule that the barstaff got first dibs on the deals if the smackheads came in with their goodies like you say (meat / coffee / Gillette triple bladers were big sellers…), and only then the customers came second. Crazy how even then your sweet old lady having her shandy top was in that queue 🙈

I’m not stealing caviar and steak to eat myself. I personally don’t care much to eat such. I may be giving that all to the homeless and starving but that’s not why I’m stealing it. I would be stealing it to rape the wealthy’s notion of value and with a major fucking load being done and do irreperable damage in the means while I’m there.

Ah, so you are an anarchist.

And you are a royal c…eh…never mind. You’ll be in the act and deny the whole shebang. Like you have a charecter worth any respect in the subservient fashion of sucking on some guy’s knuckles. No awareness that that that fashion is the ugliest facet of humanity still.
