But police were alerted after the driver of the 37-ton vehicle prepared to unload his cargo.
A factory worker, who asked not to be named, said: 'Soon after the tanker arrived at the factory, the driver got on top of it to open up the hatches on the roof.
'When the driver looked down through the hatches into the tank, he apparently saw lots of men in brown coloured clothes --all saturated with the powder.
'Goodness knows how they managed to breathe because the powder is very fine and would have been in the air. The tanker was about half full of chocolate powder - the usual maximum load, so there would have been room for 15 men to ride on top of it.'
The men were found coated in 20 tonnes of cocoa powder destined for a Mars Bar factory
He joked: 'Clearly the group of stowaways were in search of the sweet life - and they took the phrase quite literally when they boarded the truck.'
The immigrants are believed to be aged between 20 and 40 and of Middle Eastern origin.
Paramedics were called to the plant but none of the men needed treatment.

More importantly, I want to know what happend to the cocoa powder. I mean, those lot could have constantly sneezed in it with all that fine powder going up their noses. They'd also have needed toilet facilities during that journey. Yeeeuuuch! I think I'll give Mars products a bit of a wide berth until I find out the answer.

The powder will be disposed of.
There will be no question of it being used.

We are missing the point here fuuk the chocolate which they would have been pissing in anyway (no more mars bars for me), thats another 15 raghead imigrants we have to pay for and give national health to. They should have been dragged off and used as crash test dummies.

I don't think we're in any doubt there how Gort feels! This is probably one occasion where health and safety is warranted! Get rid of the cocoa powder! eek!
