The skill called Pickpocket allows taking things from unaware people, but also allows put something to someone's inventory. I want to get rid of trash (spoiled food, old equipment). So I came with some questions about that.
Is there a limit things I can put into someone's inventory during Pickpocket attempt? And another question – what will happen later with items I put into someone inventory? Will these items be wiped out or maybe carried by this person all the time?

I know from lots of playing and lots of pick pocketing that items placed into a normal NPC's inventory tend to stay there while you are in that town/city etc. but if you leave and don't come back for several days they will be gone. I have also run into the reverse where I will steal something from an NPC like boots, clothes etc. and those items will re-appear in their inventory if I leave and return a couple weeks later.
Note: I do not know if this is caused by a time limit for pick pocketing OR if there is rather a limit on total number of NPCs pick-pocketed, because I pretty much pick pocketed half of skyrim!
