Nutella Days

My 7 year-old son, who is as he says “skinny as a noodle,” was recently given the go ahead by his doctor to eat all the Nutella he wants. News out of Germany today is that 5.5 metric tons of Nutella has up and gone missing. Someone is living the high life.

“That’s what it looks like,” responded Hessian police spokesman Manfred Knoch when asked by The Local if the thieves were perhaps “stealing the ingredients for an enormous breakfast.”

This, just a couple weeks after an equally staggering amount of coffee disappeared from the same German town, Niederaula.
