The company also asked consumers not to try to locate, handle or recover the stolen goods, and said any information should be shared with local law enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Regarding recent press coverage <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Huh4EnFV2J\">pic.twitter.com\/Huh4EnFV2J<\/a><\/p>&mdash; KITKAT (@KITKAT) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KITKAT\/status\/2038313618509377852?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 29, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About 12 tons of KitKat chocolate bars were stolen while being shipped from Italy to Poland, Nestl\u00e9 said, in a theft the company says has not affected consumer safety or product supply.
