    I just don’t understand why you’d steal stuff that easily spoils in order to resell it when there’s durable goods that don’t need an uninterrupted cooling chain, I guess.

      Placement in the store, how easy it is to steal, how easy it is to offload etc. Food stuff like that is easy to steal and it’s not too cheap to not make it worth the effort but also not too expensive to make it harder to offload. Also even corner stores have that stuff so you can go to multiple places in one go, I’ve been told that’s an important factor. And those corner stores are often busier and less guarded.

      What would you rather steal?

      They steal stuff that doesn’t spoil as well. It’s been on the news for a couple years now but laundry detergent. Shits expensive and never spoils.
