Well, I say right on. However, maybe they were French....
In France, you are perfectly well within your legal right to go into a supermarket, eat anything that is edible to "test it", pull off anything that is excess weight and unedible so that what you buy is what you (want to) eat.
Which is why there are security guards in supermarkets in France.... not necessarily to stop you leaving without paying, but to stop the bums coming in and eating everything without paying and before leaving (100% legal).
An odd law that makes for great foreign viewing for foreigners seeing French prod, smell pieces of fruit, cheese, vegetables in the supermarket.
