Sure, but maybe my comment demanded some context. Beef is expensive compared to many other meats where I'm from and this person literally stole the most expensive cuts only, in amounts that came to huge sums. Their explanation made no sense, since there are far better things to steal if all you want to do is feed your family. He was caught with so much that it was unreal.
I wouldn't have brought it up in this thread unless it was weird, because I do believe stealing food from the supermarket isn't immoral if you truly need to do it to feed yourself. Not that I see it happen ever, y'know.
edit: made a clarification
