"Universal Orlando’s highly anticipated Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen has hit an unexpected legal snag prior to opening: They’ve been slapped with a hefty $40 million lawsuit. Ohio resident Adam Limle claimed the Willy Wonka-esque chocolate factory and restaurant attraction was his idea and that he had met with Universal executives for months to discuss the concept, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Limle said he even registered a trademark, The Chocolate Factory, LLC, back in 2014, but after extensive negotiations and discussions, Universal decided to steal his idea and bring it to life without consent or payment."
