I wouldn't recommend it. Zero first-hand knowledge, but I've heard their Loss Prevention department is diligent and ruthless. Apparently, they carefully document and tabulate the total theft of return shoplifters. Then, when they have the chance to catch them, they hold on for longer without doing anything. The thief gets emboldened (and has no idea the total dollar amount). Then, Target swoops in, and has law enforcement there waiting. Suddenly, it's a felony charge based on the accumulated loss...
We're saying the same thing, I think. Don't do it. But if you have to do it, a few groceries probably won't ruin you. Don't make it a habit. But don't starve. But don't make it a real habit.
No stem end, no taper, no ridges, those look like footlong hot dogs to me.
Not to say a cat wouldn't ever steal carrots, just for the "fuck you, I do what I like" of it. But as an obligate carnivore it's more likely to go for meat

Somehow this image ended up looking like a Shoebill when I was scrolling past.

Same for me, except a Toucan. Cause of the yellow.

Supposedly Target doesn't care as long as it doesn't get into the thousands/felony level, fyi.
Your mileage may drastically vary.

Makes sense.

Way too uniform to be carrots.
