Me at Costco

Imagine people who like these are either in their mid or quarter life crises.

All cops are beans

Please do not the beans.

This is where it ends right?

NTA. Your wife needs to be supportive of your health conditions and recognize that your food and drinks not not just 'some snacks', they are a medical necessity.

You and your wife need to get your teens to learn how to respect boundaries, and this starts with your wife defending you, not them.

That being said, being mad isn't always the solution. While it's understandable for anyone to be mad at this situation, you need to step back and look at what you did or said in response, and ask yourself if this is effective at changing your kids' behavior into what you want them to become.

I grew up in a household with chronic yelling, and this wasn't effective in anything other than teaching me how to lie better. I don't know what you said to your kids, but I think what would help is sitting down and explain how what they've done affects you and how it makes you feel. Whether it makes you feel like your health conditions don't matter, or it makes you feel hurt, or it makes you feel like your shopping efforts don't matter. Kids are dumb and don't always understand that what they do can hurt other people.

Ideally you can get them to promise not to do that again. Ask them what would help remind them. Maybe it's something like putting some colored tape on your food, so they know not to take it. Kids are dumb, and maybe not every mistake they make is out of malice.

If talking doesn't work, there are more options like taking away their snacks until your next grocery trip, deducting their allowance, removing privileges, not getting them snacks next time, etc. Get a locking mini fridge if you have to to get your point across that actions have consequences. If this were at a work place, HR can fire lunch thieves in a heartbeat. Better for them to tough out whatever consequences you give them now than have them get a taste of it in the real world.

So eepy

Or they licked it off and didn't share, which is a war crime

I dunno, I haven't seen clothes beat up people before.

But I'm disabled and I don't wanna be associated with NFT bros :(

Says the one who wants to sanitize the internet so their little feelings don't get hurt when they can't take criticism.

You mean your dill dough?
