73. Honestly? No.
If someone went to the trouble of breaking into my home, which has some fairly valuable stuff in it, and all they did was raid my fridge, I would be forced to assume they really really needed some food and I'd be happy they got some. I can't deny it would be unsettling, having my house entered against my will, but "violated"? No.

The problem with your example is that I don't know all the facts of the situation. The only way to know if this theft was "wrong" is to ask the person who did it, not the person who was on the receiving end. The act belongs to the perpetrator. I could say it was wrong, but I couldn't really ever be sure.
