USM- As previously reported, a thief broke into the 19-year-old Kansas State University student’s car to just steal a Kit Kat bar — leaving everything else untouched — and left a note explaining his decision to swipe the tasty snack in Manhattan, Kansas. Jobbins took to Twitter on Sunday, October 30, to share a photo of the note that the still-at-large candy culprit left him.  Naturally, the Hershey Company (parent company of Kit Kat) took notice of Jobbins’ story and reached out to him via Twitter, telling him that they were willing to “replace” his stolen candy bar — which turned out to be quite the understatement. “Kit Kat had actually contacted me and they sent a rep down from D.C. to come and fill my car with Kit Kats — 6,500 to be exact, actually,”

I’m blogging this story to remind you that, no matter what happens during tomorrow’s election, the world is still an okay place from time to time. Injustices get righted every once in awhile. A man having a Kit Kat stolen from of his car is an outright tragedy. There’s no other word to describe it. It’s worst-case-sceanrio type stuff. You never think it’s happen to you but then it does. Even if the guy who stole it seems like a relatively nice person who was simply craving a delicious Kit Kat. Can’t really blame that guy but you still don’t just swipe somebody’s Kit Kat bar. Luckily, Hershey caught wind of the tragedy and made things better by filling the kid’s car with 6,500 Kit Kats. That’s a corporation that gets it. That’s a corporation that cares. Will they be there to pay for the kid’s foot amputation surgery when he eventually gets diabetes? Stay tuned to find out.

PS- And yes, I absolutely want to stage my own candy bar theft so I get thousands of free chocolate bars. I’m thinking either Butterfinger or Heath.
