As the news breaks, a severe chocolate chip shortage has gripped the nation. The streets are empty, the markets are in shambles, and the nation is in chaos.
Reports are emerging of desperate citizens attempting to barter for chocolate chips, with some even resorting to trading away their firstborns for a bag of crunchy morsels.
In response to this crisis, we at the Ministry of Emergency Chocolate Supplies (M ECS) are working around the clock to address the issue. We have deployed an emergency task force, known as CHOC-1, to scour the nation for hidden stashes of chocolate chips.
