They were all but guaranteed to be thrown out and wasted, so after asking if anyone else wanted any, I took them home in a ziploc for me and my friend.
Apparently didn't sit right with someone, and walked in today and got scolded/job threatened over it. Over some leftover BBQ chips.
Lack of solidarity and brown nosing management man...sucks. Just feel disappointed and let down.
Edit: Thank you all for the support and sympathetic comments, they helped me feel better than I did. I was pretty shaken at the time, but have calmed significantly since (albeit quite tired mentally and emotionally). I'm going to try and move on from the experience, though I may have an idea who the culprit is due to circumstantial evidence. I'll just be more cautious around them and the majority of my coworkers from now on. Wish I didn't have to be, but thems the breaks. Thx again <3
What fucking inhuman people would care about such a thing. Few things make me feel like burning it all down than this sort of behavior, like when stores throw out day-old bread and lock the dumpster, fire people for taking home wasted food, it's despicable. It's a reflection of their hatred for people and society.
