A friend and I were having a debate. Can I hear someone else’s opinion about this?
And please give me an explanation. If yes, why? If no, why?
Thanks in advance 👍🏼
Stealing per se is never OK, but acceptable under certain circumstances, of which many have already been mentioned here. In this particular case, foodwaste is another factor, making it a bigger crime not to give away surplus food for free & making people feel guilty of “stealing” it when they can’t afford it. Nobody should have to starve in a society where food lands on a dumpster every single day.
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.
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.
They put locks in their rubbish and they throw food in good state not even passing the expiration date in some cases.

If there is only one piece of food left, we are already dead. The reality is that we produce more food than we can eat.

Yes but in reality, that case is impossible. We can have low resources but not a single meal. The problem is the capitalist system that forces people to work to eat and pay their home stuff instead to just do normal life. The food process is all automated but rich countries wastes food and throws them on trash instead to balance it, so I would say, steal anything you need to survive like eat or have a home, everyone deserves a decent life as a human. https://yewtu.be/watch?v=7Pq-S557XQU
