A large shipment of KitKat bars was stolen while in transit to distributors, a major candy crime right before the Easter holiday that could cause shortages for customers.

The truck carrying 413,793 units of a “new chocolate range”, about 12 tons of chocolate bars, was pilfered while driving through Europe on 26 March, Agence France-Presse reported.

    Freia is owned by Mondelez these days, but Freia is sort of the “flag carrier” chocolate in Norway, so don’t know how much BS they can pull off before they cause an outrage.

        You mean KitKat or Kvikk Lunsj. Freia is the brand I was talking about. And that’s owned by Mondelez. KitKat is Nestlé.

        Edit: Its such a Norwegian brand they haven’t even bothered with an English language version of the webpage
