Chocolate used to ward off robber!

Chocolate. That lovely substance that melts people into cavity infested junkies. On Friday we had news that Cadbury's had added Salmonella to some of their chocolate bars. Now we have a shop keeper using a box of Topic Bars to ward off an axe wielding robber! Whatever next? Are we going to find out that North Korea isn't really testing a nuclear missile, it's really a new secret recipe for Kinda Surprise? Or maybe Mr Hussein didn't have WMD's, but had thousands of KitKats hidden under the desert? Whatever happens, watch this space. Chocolate is clearly the new Rock 'n' Roll.
Is there such a thing as the British Chocolate Council? Maybe it's all designed to encourage chocolate to be in the news more - and make us eat more. My 250g Dairy Milk is still sitting in the fridge. The reason I haven't eaten it? Nothing to do with Salmonella. I haven't eaten it because I forgot it was there. So BCC (if you exist) it's not working. This will be the last chocolate based cartoon for the rest of the week, unless something else bizarre happens with chocolate. Do you want some chocolate now?
Thanks to Caliope for the tip off. If you have a chocolate related story (with link) that you think I should cover - drop me a line.
