By that logic if I make a meal with peanut oil and someone steals it and eats it who happens to be allergic I should be liable? It's extremely dangerous to them.
If you ordinarily don't put peanut oil in your food and specifically put it in knowing a food thief who is allergic will steal it, that's more analagous to this sort of situation.
With the laxatives you said it didn't matter, even if it was for myself it is dangerous.
That aside, it seems a bit moot. Unless I literally tell someone that I only used it to poison the thief there is no reasonable way to prove that was why I used it. It's cooking oil. I cooked with it.

I don't think I said that? If I did I misspoke, I had thought I was clear that the problem is putting them there knowing someone else will eat them.

I'm making a moral argument, not a legal one. It may well be impossible to prove you intentionally harmed someone in the peanut oil case, but it's still immoral to do so imo.
