A defect in the ventilation system at the Lindt & Sprüngli chocolate factory in Olten, Switzerland resulted in a spray of "cocoa nibs" into the air, leaving a fine dust of chocolate around the factory and the nearby environment.

The company says one car was lightly coated, and that it has offered to pay for any cleaning needed — but hasn’t yet been taken up on the offer.

One would guess that the owner of the car would be tempted to clean it himself -with his tongue. Or as the Fark headline said, "That's what a Lindt brush is for." Tay Zonday could not be reached for comment.
