Double? or trend? (Original article in previous post is missing so I can't tell if it's the same.)

I don't know. One way or another, it's the stuff that nightmares are made of.

Nightmares? Gimme a spoon!

Doesn't appear to be the same story -- the other guy was supposedly "cleaning" the vat and got stuck due to the weight of the chocolate and suction holding him down.

Also, no mention of his ankles popping with chocolatey goodness in this story.

Oh c'mon, it's gotta be the same guy. I mean, how many guys get stuck in chocolate a week? Besides, both articles mentioned trying to thin the chocolate with cocoa butter.

That phrase should be repeated as often as possible.

If I worked in a chocolate factory, and a coworker got stuck in the vat, I'd use cocoa butter to thin it out, too; water would probably ruin the chocolate and then the boss would come down and we'd all be in a world of chocolate shit.

Well, I'd do that after I stopped laughing, taking photos, and making fun of the coworker.

But having a man marinating in there is okay? Hee!

I fell into a vat of chocolate
I fell into a vat of chocolate
I fell into a vat of chocolate

What did you do when you fell into the chocolate?

I yelled "fire" when I fell into the chocolate.
Smothers Brothers sic.
