I would have no moral qualms with doing that if I could make an identical copy of the products and leave with the copy.

That's the comparison that is most apt in this case.

You can't copy an apple from an apple, they're not true breeding.

Even if that weren't the case, you couldn't copy an apple in a grocery store anyway.

In that case the grocery store is providing a service of aggregating and organizing all the products you want, and keeping them fresh. That’s not free. Even if the act of making a copy is free, there are a lot of expenses involved on the store side.
