Canadian Man Steals $1,500 Worth of Chewing Gum

This is a confusing one. Because when you read the headline, you don't think--as many It Came From the Internet stories force you to think--"Oh my god!" or "How in the world did that happen?" or "That person must be an animal!"

I have no idea! Of all the bigger ticket items at a pharmacy, or the items one would think have significant street value on the black market, gum isn't even in the top 1000.
