A Swiss town experienced a cocoa storm that left the town unrecognizable

Olten, a town with less than 20,000 inhabitants, had to face an unusual problem that they would never have imagined in their sweetest dreams. A ventilation duct at one of the most exquisite and precious chocolate factories in the world, Lindt & Sprüngli , experienced a malfunction which caused thousands of cocoa beans and fragments of crushed beans to be released into the environment .


Chocolate and other cases
Due to the weather of the month, the strong winds helped to transport, throughout the area, the small fragments of cocoa that ended up mixing with atmospheric processes that, finally, caused the chocolate to end up in the soil of the entire population. The chocolate company took responsibility for any damage that could have been committed and, in addition, offered to compensate for any imperfections Email Data caused by the peculiar rain . It should be noted that no person complained to the city council or the brand, so the event remained an anecdotal historical event.


It is important to note that this type of cocoa rain does not pose any danger to the well-being of human beings since what falls from the sky has components that are harmless to human health.






The phenomenon of strange rains is not new since, previously in other countries, atmospheric events of a similar nature were experienced. In the United States, the state of Virginia was terrified in 2012 when it saw precipitation of meat throughout its various cities. The most curious thing is that the blame was placed on the seagulls who dropped debris all over the area. Likewise, in Australia in 2010 hundreds of fish fell from the sky due to waterspouts.Five strategic keys to digitalization
