That's not that harmless. Had a colleague who was hospitalized because he ate a Kiev cutlet filled with peanut butter.

She knew who was stealing her lunch and probably knew about the allergy

    The food wasn't for him, so it's not like he could complain, really

    Depends on the jurisdiction, but intentionally adding potentially harmful substances to food in a situation like this can absolutely be illegal and get people put in jail.

    That's simple fact, whether you agree or not.

    I tend to think something like this should be okay if, like, management was involved but says they can't do anything, but my opinion doesn't matter - the law does.

    Adding condiments to your food, that you intend to eat, is illegal?

    Cute. If it is illegal in your jurisdiction, I propose you try that nonsense in court and see how well it works out for you.

    That is, you're being obviously willfully stupid to try and make a point that fails. I'd say it's cute, but it's not.

    It's about as cute as five hours of your kids in the back seat "I'M NOT TOUCHING!!!!"

    edit: I put "cute" in all three paragraphs with contradictory indications. Oh well. I'm just over people trying to be like this.

    Yeah the smarter move is to just start having peanut butter sandwiches for lunch. Then you can earnestly say "I knew who was stealing my lunch, I just thought they were smart enough to not steal a meal they're allergic to"

    Booby trapping with non edible substances or poison is illegal. Making your own food with something someone else has an allergy to is not.

    Well it's a good thing they used mustard instead of a common allergen then

    Why is this relevant?

    Have you heard of mustard gas?

    Huh... If they perished after eating another person's lunch, that is really their fault, but if the allergen was planted there that could be murder. Could you prove definitively that it was intentional?
