What??? That's Illegal??? Give Me a Break...

Just had a Kinder Joy egg. It's a pretty common sweet here, and I thought I would try one, as I will most likely not get the chance to try one in the States. Because they are illegal.
     

It wasn't anything that great. Some milk chocolate, some white chocolate, little crunchy things like the Ferrero Rocher chocolates. It was decent. The toy inside was a pair of tops. Kinda neat little tops. But apparently this is what makes the candy illegal in the States. Even though they have warnings that there is a toy inside, and the toy complies with safety standards. I kind of thought the toy was actually in the chocolate, but the toy and chocolate are in separate sides of the egg shaped container. It's called natural selection. If you're dumb enough to eat a toy instead of the chocolate, then maybe you're destined to choke. 
This article is interesting, telling about why they have been banned in the US. It goes a little deeper than my rant of, "People in the US are flipping stupid and need to take responsibility for their own actions."
