(at which point it also ceases to be property) – or possibly earlier, e.g. when it is ordered and cooked in a restaurant. Ownership of petrol passes when it is put in a petrol tank. In the absence of mens rea from the outset, the appropriate charge for this type of offence would be making off without payment under [statute]which was brought in to cover those who were unable to be convicted of theft in these situations.
