KENOSHA, Wis. - It might sound like a chocoholic's dream, but stepping into a vat of bubbling chocolate
became a two-hour nightmare for a 21-year-old man Friday morning.

Donovan Garcia, an employee of a company that supplies chocolate ingredients, said he was pushing the
chocolate down into the vat at Debelis Corp. because it was stuck. But it became loose and he slid into the
hopper.

The whole thing

Why didn't he just try to eat his way out of the vat? That's what just about anyone else would have done...

I'm sorry for the victim, but this reminds me of the song Chocolate by the Smothers Brothers.

Exactly my thought. "I yelled fire!", etc.

But did the company sell the chocolate afterward?
