I'm not in a position to tell if someone can afford to eat. They might look like they're employed or be dressed expensively, but people can fall on hard times suddenly

So I'm not going to report anyone for anything except crimes against individuals

Thats what food banks are for. Theft is illegal and unethical.

On a grand scale: That's what states are for. On a personal scale: If states let people go hungry, don't make their life harder than it already is, don't be an asshole.
