Thieves in Germany have stolen five tons-worth of Nutella spread, police have reported.
Worth around €16,000 (£13,000), the seven palettes of Nitella jars were taken at the weekend in the central city of Niederaula.
Criminals in the region have previously stolen other large quantities of food products, including 34,000 cans of an energy drink taken in August, and five tons of coffee worth €30,000 taken in March.
The site of the thefts, northeast of Frankfurt, is near a road transport hub where truck drivers living in the region tend to park their lorries at weekends, said a police spokesman.
Last month, Columbia University in New York City denied its students had been stealing as much as $5,000 worth of Nutella from its dining halls.
