The question is why would they produce them in Italy. Most of the food on Polish shelves that can be produced in Poland, is.

Food for comedians for the next few months lol

The irony of Nestle asking to alert and help them finding the criminals.

Let's hope the investors have a break (through)

Don’t KitKats have AoP status and can only authentically be made in York? The craze for Japanese KitKats being an exception. Having bought a triple pack of 7 double finger KitKats in the nineties and eating them all in 20 minutes I can’t even look at a pack anymore.

Is this set up for a remake of the Italian job? Were electric minis used in this heist? Was the Turin traffic system hacked? Were only the doors blown off (come on baby light my fire)?

That was me, sorry, I just love KitKats. (So as to avoid being like the Robin Hood Airport guy, I'd like to say the above was a joke)

Can't help but think of George Clooney orchestrating the heist from his villa in Lago di Como (with a perfect alibi somehow). Maybe Brad Pitt was hungry.

The sad thing is KitKat isn't even very good.

Reads like a PR stunt to me

I'd wager the entire load collectively contained only 90 kg of cocoa and 10 tons of so-called "certified responsibly sourced" palm kernel oil.

Food heist!

I can't help wondering how the 413,793 bars were stacked. 413,793 is 3×3×23×1999.

They are quite expensive and there is not something similar on the market (even not from house brands of Aldi, Lidl, etc).

Anyone else find the exact number somewhat weird. Like one would expect it to end in 0 or 2 or 5...

I just realized that I've not seen them in a supermarket like for ages (in France). Together with Bounty, Mars,Snickers,.. the stuff of my youth

For resale or personal use, I wonder ...
