A common "Revenge" for this type of behavior in the modern day (usually an office setting) is to give the thief more than they bargained for. The most common is dousing an otherwise mundane dish in BlazingInfernoHellfireSauce; this not only teaches them a VERY painful lesson, it also outs them as the food thief, and if they attempt to complain, you can throw their innocent act back in their face by asking them why they were getting into your food and they can't feign ignorance, because if you're the one they're complaining at, clearly they had full knowledge it was ''your'' food. However, it's not advised to do this with things that can cause common allergies like peanuts, fruits, or gluten -- if you even ''slightly'' suspect that the thief has one of these allergies and they suffer an allergic reaction, you can be charged for poisoning or ''attempted murder.''

'' Methods like putting your food in a bag with "mold" print or writing "I licked it" in bold letters are legal, but usually useless. Especially if the filcher turns out to be snarky.

* An old Polish proverb says "Stolen food won't make you fat." Mind, it's an old proverb, coined back when people wanted food to make them fat - it means that crime doesn't pay. The proverb had been used in a series of tongue-in-cheek yoghurt ads, though.
* An anecdote says someone tried to prevent their sandwich being stolen by writing "I licked this" on the bag, only to return and find that somebody else added "so did I" underneath.

* Josh Johnson supposedly carried out a variant of this, at the expense of TheKlan. For context: Johnson, whose stage persona is very BlackAndNerdy, had a white friend who accidentally attended a barbecue that segued into a Klan rally. When he got home, he talked with Josh about how it was genuinely an accident, and he had no intention of going back.
