If it was alcohol and cigarettes, okay, but sandwich and cookies? Come on. He clearly doesn’t have money to buy these two so lets fine him for 30 sandwiches and cookies… Makes sense.

And it is of course fitting that it is a set fine, which only serves as a burden for poor people. For rich people it would be pocket change and mean nothing.
