Addictive and a bugger to stop using though once you start.

Cocaine is kinda bad to get off to.

I want to know where the US government is keeping it's secret stash of 25,000 Kinder eggs. I suspect they may be trying to cause a global shortage to drive the price up or something. I smell a conspiracy! Where's me tinfoil hat?

They're banned here because the egg man freak in this commercial is nightmare fuel. I can imagine some Washington-type seeing this, his eyes widen, he shakes his jowls and says "N-n-no! We can't have *that!*" :

[Tchocky]

I read *somewhere* that Kinder eggs are one of the most commonly seized items by US Border Patrol.

Whatever, americans prefer brownies and doughnuts.
Keep the Kinder eggs out of the US.

Silly,

In the U.S. it is boasted we have freedoms and 'rights' unlike any other country in the world. Yet for some odd reason as a country have more laws on the books than any other country in the world. Why is this one might ask? We've been trained well, if there is even a hint or a perception something is wrong. The people immediately demand the government of the people for the people fix it. We invite this into every aspect of our lives every time then get pissed off when elected officials do what is demanded of them! Go figure.


Just an observation nothing more.

I don't think you're so special in this regard. In Italy we have something like more than 50 000 laws (where France has someting like 5 000 laws). We have laws for everything, even laws that contradict one another. Can you believe it ? We have so many damn laws, that in the end most of them are simply not enforced. Until the time you want to use them to shut your political opponent that is. But even then, we haven't had the guts to ban Kinder eggs.

Bird learned U.S. authorities have banned the candy because they come with a plastic toy inside that could, if eaten, choke a small child.

Well, that explains it. Our society has this odd, cultural fetish with children. Anything that puts a dent in child safety, self esteem, or might somehow shatter their virgin ears is stringently frowned upon.

(NSFW language)

So no, i'm not surprised about Kinder Eggs. (frankly, i never heard of them before).
