    Pretty sure that you get the benefit of the doubt if you had a feasible reason for adding/changing something about your food.

    For example, you could add a laxative to your food/drink and be totally in the clear as long as you labelled your container with your name and maintain that you’ve been constipated. It’s a totally valid reason, plus it was labelled with your name so there’s no reason for anyone else to be consuming it.

      That argument has been tried, but if you knew other people were stealing your food, you can still be liable.

      And in this case, it would be a stretch for the person to say they like putting their own breast milk in their coffee, and the note makes it clear that it was done intentionally to upset the perpetrator.

        I think its feasible that they have to pump during work hours and just use that container

          That note would make no sense in that case. Why would she wait until the end of the week, then add a “Surprise!” note?
