When you think about a car break-in, your mind probably conjures up images of someone desperately rummaging through glove compartments for cash or electronics. You’d be surprised to learn that sometimes, it’s all about the candy. A student at Oakwood University discovered this firsthand, after leaving his car unlocked for just 15 minutes, only to find his beloved KitKat bar swiped by an unexpected thief.
According to reports, Jake Thompson made the rookie mistake of thinking his snack was safe in his open vehicle. Little did he know, a sweet-toothed passerby would take advantage of the situation. The thief, who clearly had a sweet tooth, left behind a comical apology note scrawled on a napkin that read, “I saw your KitKat in the cup holder. I love KitKats, so I checked your door and it was unlocked. I only took the KitKat. Sorry, I was hungry.”
Talk about honesty! Thompson initially felt a wave of frustration wash over him upon discovering the note, but that quickly morphed into laughter as he realized the absurdity of the situation. “At first, I was kinda mad about my KitKat, but then I just had to laugh at how ridiculous it was,” he shared.
In a delightful twist of fate, the candy brand caught wind of the incident and decided to send Thompson a care package to replace his stolen treat. Meanwhile, Twitter users chimed in, some humorously admitting they’d likely do the same if they spotted a lonely KitKat waiting to be taken.
As amusing as this tale is, it serves as a reminder of the unsettling feeling that comes with having your personal space violated. While it’s a funny story in retrospect, the initial shock can be quite real. Hopefully, this incident won’t encourage others to rummage through strangers’ cars—because nobody enjoys that feeling of intrusion.
In the midst of this humorous theft, I can’t help but reflect on my own unfortunate experience of having my bag stolen while at the gym. Had I seen Thompson’s tweet earlier, I might have been inspired to leave some candy in the front seat, diverting attention from my more valuable belongings. For now, I’ll be consoling myself with KitKats from my kids’ Halloween haul. They may have taken my purse, but they’ll never take my candy!
