Still protest: Products upside down are now also visible in German supermarkets.
I'm considering doing this, but what do people do if they are confronted by the people who work at the supermarket?
Could it be seen as a form of vandalism?-
Just act confused. Like you picked it up to look at it, decided you didn't want it, and put it back. It being upside down is coincidental.

You are right, It's probably not a biggie anyway.
But I was a bit curious if anyone had actual experience with it.

IANAL, but I’m pretty sure it’s only vandalism if you actually break stuff. So as long as you’re not breaking their merchandise trying to balance Californian wine bottles upside down, it should be fine.
You can, of course, be asked to stop and get thrown out if you don‘t comply. It’s their store, their rules, after all. But I don‘t think most of the staff would care enough to even talk to you. I’d recommend just being subtle and not spending hours going from shelf to shelf, flipping stuff over.

Getting German staff to talk to you? It's hard enough getting the attention of waiters.

I'm not so sure, grafitti on a wall is legally vandalism, even if it's pretty, and it doesn't really break anything. But it can be argued to not look "right", and the same is true for tuning things upside down.

Yes that would probably annoy them, and they might ask people that do that to not show up again.
I don't want to piss them off so I can't shop there.

Good to hear

Funny how there wasn't a peep from them when Biden blew up their cheap Russian gas pipeline forcing them to buy wildly espensive fracking gas from the US, putting them in an uncompetitive position leading to recession.
I'm sure not buying Coke will even that out.
