    You should be able to remove the keys but getting under the edge of them with a fingernail or maybe a small screwdriver (be careful not to pry too hard and ruin the plastic keys). They should pop off, then you just push them back on. If it isn't stuck, you could maybe get the chocolate out with a can of air. Good luck.

    i've found the best way to handle keyboard **** is to pull the keyboard and blow it out with compressed air. i do that periodically to my toshiba and all of a sudden i feel like i ahve a brand-new keyboard.
