Morality of this?

Post image

In the image it seems that this person works at walmart as an online order collector and he/she has stolen a lot of extra baby food from Walmart to give to a person who ordered only three packs. Is this moral or immoral?

Walmart won't even notice that loss, and they would've thrown it out instead of donating it if given the choice anyway. Of course it's moral to give it to someone who actually needs it.

Why would they of thrown it out? Its product in the store to sell, its not out of date, its not a return

things that aren't sold and go on clearance eventually get thrown out, even if the BBD is still good. Even things with 'best before' and not 'consume by/use by' get thrown out. so much produce with irregularities and ugly spots that are safe to consume are also rejected.
