Kinder Eggs Can Choke Children. They're Worth It.
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission is warning consumers not to buy Kinder Chocolate Eggs over Easter, because they pose a choking hazard to small children.
Don't listen to those assholes. Forget Bush for a second — the country-wide ban on the marvelous chocolate delight that is the Kinder Egg is the real reason that the US is now a totalitarian state, a fascist dictatorship.
There is nothing better than cracking open the foil of a Kinder Egg and peeling back the rubbery chocolate shell, revealing the hard orange yolk of the plastic prize bubble. Inside, a wonderful toy just waits to be discovered! Will it be a robot? A small car? Some jacks?
Honestly, the Kinder Egg is worth a few stiff, blue-faced toddlers. The advantage of living in Europe is you can have a Kinder Egg whenever you want. This Easter, whip out your wallet, speak loud, speak strong. Bring back the Kinder Egg.

I just wish I COULD find a vendor in the U.S. who was selling them. It gets expensive having to order them from Canada/over seas all the time.
I am completely ashamed to say that I know the gov't lawyer who helped create the original ban on Kinder Eggs (and all solid-object-inside-edible-object products).
I can't tell you the number of Europeans and Canadians have said to me, "Choking hazard? Are American children that stupid?"
Totally, 100% with you on this one. I think they haven't shut down my local source yet, so I'll have to stock up!
I am reminded of the Simpson's episode where Bart chokes on the sharp metal toy inside his box of Krusty-O's cereal. :)
Krusty: "To prove that my cereal is harmless, I will now eat this jagged O.[eats it]
Ahhh! It's shredding my insides!"
Sideshow Mel: "That was a regular Krusty-O."
Krusty: "It's poison!"
Heh, I've got one sitting on my desk right now...along with 3 assembled toys that I almost choked on.
Uh? is this for real? C´mon, here in mexico we can get it at every corner, we are even tired of them lol
USA is a very intriguing country, please done¡t take me wrong, i have very good friends and family there. But just look at yourselves, you sue people over anything "Yes your honor, he stared at me in a bad way and caused me damage, i want a million bucks" or "Yes your honor, we just have found that games rated M contain sex, viiolence and dead puppies, we want a law to stop them".
I may live in a third world country, we may be USA´s backyard and labourhand. But even here, we havent lost common sense. Viva Mexico Cabrones!!
Again i repeat, no offense intended, just my sincere and humble opinion, i dont want to end up sued for psicological damage XD
Anyone want Kinder Eggs? i have plenty, we can make a deal ;).
Erzengel, can you get me a set of Lawn Darts? :)
Near Baltimore, MD? I know you can get them at Arundel Mills Mall in the candy store. They must import them under the radar. I buy a handful of them whenever I'm there to see a movie in the Google-plex. My kids love them!
I got hooked on them when a German co-worker would have them shipped over from his hometown. Then, I smuggled some back from my Mexican honeymoon and was happy to learn that the above mentioned store carried them.
Let us just say that many of the strange bodegas that dot the face of Manhattan have been known to have kinder eggs near the cash register. And thank God for that, otherwise I'd still have to smuggle them in. Does it count as smuggling if you've already eaten the chocolate and you're just bringing small cheap yet clever plastic toys into the country? I always declare them.
We have them in Canada so you don't even have to go as far as Europe.
