absolutely

no amount of food you could ever feasibly steal would match the 40% of food wasted in America

it is a failure of society for anyone to go hungry, not just a child, and there are many places you could steal from that will go completely unnoticed

It depends of who you’re stealing from. Another individual? No. But thankfully now we have big food distribution chains, that have impressive percentages of produce already accounted to be wasted at some point, so please take what you need in the supermarket.

40% wasted in America

steal from chains, there will be no consequences to any workers, you'll have food, and they'll still be a disgusting profit machine

Like Mercadona in Spain to make a comparison.
