I can't imagine what is feels like to be hungry for few days and no money to buy food. May be in that state some human minds ignore morals, pride, social and legal concequnces of stealing food.

A few days is nothing. Fasting for a few days actually feels great. Weeks and months of being constantly hungry, though, probably feels awful.
