The new toys suck anyway so you're not missing out. I can't even fathom why it would be banned in the US except that maybe too many people were trying to eat the obvious toy hidden in a capsule... separated from the chocolate.

You get them taken off you at customs in America and sometimes can receive a fine for having them :/
I don;t know how I didn;t notice the post about customs and fines :/
They've been banned since 1938, apparently. Two instances of fatalities!
Kinder eggs are banned because some moralizing, self-aggrandizing regulators have way too much time on their hands.
The general prohibition of non-food inside food started back in 1938, I believe. This wasn't applied to Kinder eggs until much later.Quote:

We got some good trout. I got a set of mini screwdrivers, my mum got some nailclippers and my brother got a little notebook with a cool shiny cover.
My mum got a cool pen, my sister a deck of cards and I, a wine bottle stopper. Left them over at my mum's though. Oh well.
More today, I don't doubt it'll be a lame oversized paperclip or a psychic fish or a jumping frog or something. :(
Have none of you Americans ever read Harry Potter?
Seriously.
Where did you get such awesome crackers? All I get are lame toys that even kids aren't allowed to play with!Quote:
