Because it is food poisoning. Yes, them stealing food is illegal but so is poisoning food knowing someone will eat it.
This is not one of those situations where one person is wrong so the other must be right. This is one of those situations where both people are assholes.
I guess depends on how they define “poison” in the legal sense. I know that most soaps aren’t toxic unless you have it regularly for a while. But I would argue the same for most fast food.
Because your intentionally tampering with food which is felony. You get a 15 second laugh, and then the person you pranked can turn around and get you sent a prison for up to 15 years and $10,000 in fines.
Sure, they deserved it, but it ain’t worth going to prison over.

Mate, you’re acting like I’m defending the ethical morality of this law.
See 18 U.S. Code § 1365.
It’s why you see people telling people to not put hot peppers and laxatives in their work food in an effort to “punish” or “prank” other people.
I’m old enough to understand that people get in trouble all the time for breaking stupid laws. Maybe instead of attacking me, you should learn how “laws” work. It might save you from getting the shit sued out of you in the future.
Also, this post is like a year old. What are you doing? lol
How TF is this not legal? It’s meant to be your own food. If you want to eat soap, then no-one should be able to tell you otherwise.

Soap isn’t poison unless you keep eating it.

True. Poison may not be the right word. Food tampering my be more accurate.
I beg to differ. Food thief is the significantly bigger asshole.

15 years of prison because a moron ate a tiny amount of soap… How old are you?
