What the fuck are you talking about? They literally ran into a getaway car with their friend to leave the scene of the crime as fast as they could. You don't steal hundreds of pounds of meat at Christmas because "you need nutrients"...

I knew a very good looking girl, she was a student while I did my B.Sc. her parents paid for her studies but nothing more. She managed to work enough to rent a very basic place.

However, she had no problem asking people for a ride, or to take their car for a ride. She would than shoplift a lot of food, including high quality ingredients. If something went wrong she smiled and cried her self out of the troubles.

And the stolen food? she cooked a lot and gave away most of it.

People are weird, and you don't know what's going in other people's lives. Is it possible they are trying to make profit on the back of others? Yes, can it be something else? Yes.

Somehow I managed to work enough hours in college to afford both food and rent. Imagine that.

There is more than one country on Earth, different regions within a county may offer different number of available jobs and some people have different capabilities due to health issues. Imagine that.
