Like others, we had a refrig thief in our office. For our bait-station, we used a couple slices of meat-lovers pizza and a whole box of ducolax.
Cold pizza works well because the layer of cheese and meat lifts up easily. The crushed ducolax was mixed with marinara sauce and applied under the cheese layer.
The first application stopped the food stealing for about a month. A second dosage was necessary and then the problem quit for good.

When I was in the Army we had a food thief in our barracks. What really sucked was if you worked night shift in the hospital, your shift ended before the mess hall was open for serving. To compensate, they had a special menu where you could pick what you wanted to eat, and they had it ready for you in a box in the office with your name on it when you got off of work. This jackass was pilfering from everyone's meals - you know, a bite out of your apple or sandwich, and then wrapping it up again. All of us victims "seasoned" our food with a very potent laxative, and we were going to have a "blanket party" for the thief. It didn't take long to find out who the thief was, but he was in such misery that no one had the heart to throw him his blanket party. It was a while before that guy could eat real food without getting sick.
BTW, not meaning to be a spoilsport here, but be careful about your retaliation/traps for your food thieves lest you are the one who ends up getting disciplined or fired. Yeah, as an HR Manager I've had to do that and no one was happy about it.
Regards,
Dave

Back in the day there was a food thief in our work shack. Couldn't catch him and he had the tendency to just steal a couple of guys food. Well one of them put a Whaler (McDs fish sandwich) in the hotbox that had been setting in his truck the whole weekend. Well the thief ate it and got food poisoning, it was the Shop Foreman. We laughed and laughed. Needless to say he got a visit from the people he had been stealing from.

The next afternoon we all saw who kept making trips to the bathroom. So my boss went in to the bathroom in between the thief’s visits and removed all of the toilet paper. The thief quit shortly after.
