Pronunciation: but/he/swipe

Sentence: Norman was an unashamed buttyswiper, it was common knowledge that if your lovingly prepared homemade deluxe sandwich had vanished from the communal fridge and a limp grey one was left in its place, you were the victim of a buttyswiping and the trail of crumbs and hollandaise sauce would lead straight to Norman's store cupboard.

Etymology: butty (as in chip butty, a northern English delicacy - a carbohydrate sandwich) + swipe (to steal,pinch, nick, thieve, rob etc)

Pronunciation: Swop-slop

Sentence: When Peter discovered what his wife had packed him for lunch, he let out a huge sigh. He realised that she had been trying out her new recipes on him again and this time had surpassed herself by creating some inedible looking mess that could not be identified. He then had the brilliant idea of going to office fridge and proceeded to swapslop his lunch for something that resembled food. No-one would ever guess it was him as long as he kept his mouth shut.

Etymology: Swap(an act of exchanging one thing for another) + Slop(unappetizing semi-liquid food) = Swapslop

Sentence: Forsythe the Forensic Accountant on the fourth floor was famous because he would forayge in the fridge. He focussed on fabulous finds and would forge ahead of the noon rush to find filberts, feta, fontina, figs and Fanta. He filched things out of different lunch bags and filled his own lunch box with the fixings. Then he would calmly stroll into the lunch room and enjoy a free, filling and funtastic feast. He would purloin sirloin,pluck duck,plunder Wonder bread,rustle mussels,grab crab,rob Cobb and snitch sandwich with the slickness of any cat burglar. In his haste for taste one late morning, Fosythe failed to foresee the video camera which was installed in the lunch room. As he was hauled off in handcuffs, he all too late remembered that there was no such thing as a free lunch!

Etymology: foray (steal goods; take as spoils;briefly enter enemy territory;a sudden short attack) & forage (the act of searching for food and provisions;collect or look around for (food))
