...Anti-Theft Lunchbags. Pre-printed with a rather nasty looking mold image to discourage casual theft.

I am curious to know: What sad part of the world would you have to live in to need to protect your sandwiches from being stolen?

American high schools and university dorm rooms.  :P

And most business places.  I took someones OJ once (it was a dare, calm down).  My sister told me people would always take her food from the forensic lab she was working in.

IainB:
Wow. The only places I can recall food being stolen is on the very odd occasion when using communal fridges in backpacker hotels or campsites in New Zealand, but then marking your food (e.g., with name or room-number) usually seems to work.
I guess there will always be people who quite literally do not care and will steal whatever they want.

My GF works for the state social service. She maintains that the word "entitled" is the most dangerous and corrosive word in the American-English dictionary. The ever more widespread attitude that says: "I'm entitled..." is what is destroying most of what America used to be about.

She could be right. :'(
