I cannot stress enough how taking good from a supermarket is a victimless crime. These stores throw out several magnitudes more food than they could ever "lose" through shoplifting.
All chain supermarkets in Germany are owned by some of the richest dozen or so families in the country. And over the last two years and change, they raised prices for basic things such as flour, pasta, bread, cooking oil etc. by at least 50%, sometimes 100% or more, while production cost has only risen marginally. These people are doing fine for themselves. I doubt that the situation is any different for supermarkets in most other countries
