It started with the high end mixtures like bee pollen substitute baby food and word its was down to the less expensive brands. theft of baby food is very common here in Southern California. And tobacco? what kind of fool would leave it out in the open for every 10 year old to filch? at $4.00 a gallons, I think service station owners are quite happy the gas tanks are buried very deep.

Oh, and keep in mind that a healthy sub 1 year old can cruise through a can in less than 3 days. It's not just the poor that are stealing it. Poor people aren't stupid. They have other ways around this stuff... believe me I know all about baby bottles filled with plain cow milk with molasses mixed in.

They have been doing that in Chicago at smaller stores for the last 10 years and longer. It isn't because people are stealing it to feed their kids.
