Same here. But maybe I'm missing out - could I just go around the store, eating stuff for an hour, and then try to remember what I ate to tell the cashier (And if I missed anything, you can't prove anything - I just forgot). If everybody did this, the system just wouldn't work. Unless the supermarkets just didn't allow you eat something until you paid for it, which is the most sensible solution - but that's a "rule" it seems like almost everyone just sort of follows as a societal norm anyway.
