This one doesn't surprise me. It was common (apparently) amongst university students where I attended school. At a Craft & Food course a fellow student claimed that you buy all other food but steal cheese. More than half of the class knew of or followed this practice. It was new to me and I didn't do it because, not a thief (additional edit: also I was a mature student of 50+years). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The school had a food bank btw.
