Here in the UK, those yellow capsules are often recycled to use for concealing drugs in your anus. Happy Halloween!
Out of the brown substance it was found, and to the brown stuff it shall return.
Triggered…
That chocolate is awesome, it’s stupid AF for it to be illegal in the US.
I may or may not have been busted by customs carrying several dozen of these, and may or may not have not been caught a few other times…
Hold on, if there is one thing that isn’t awesome is the chocolate. The toy is amazing, the chocolate trigger childhood memories. But it’s really bad chocolate.
They are now in the US they just took the toy away so american children don’t choke
No… what we got has toys, it’s just in a split clamshell kinda deal, with a toy in one half, and a Nutella like paste in the other half with a little malt ball in it. It’s crap and I hate it :)
The split pack “freedom” version is called kinder joy, as opposed to kinder surprise.
They really should have called it kinder freedom.
That really would have been delicious.
Interestingly, they were designed for warmer environments where Kinder eggs would melt. The fact that they circumvented the weird US restrictions was a side effect.
Which is funny because that version adds more choking hazards. As there is the small plastic spoon and the toy is more easy accesible to a kid.
That said the side of the toy+ spoon can be separated by a parent and kept away and give them just the Nutella side and give them a proper spoon that they probably won’t choke on.
Fuck man, I didn’t realize it was that bad of a remake.
My ex Gf back into the day got pulled aside at Dulles Airport for having two boxes of Kinder Eggs. Better makes sure Noone enjoys life
People act like America had some sort of campaign against Kinder Eggs when it just violated a blanket “you can’t put non-food things inside food” rule.
And Europe HAS lost children to them so I don’t know why that became an American thing.
I only found one article about a 3yr french girl that died because of the kinder toy. Are there more cases?
Anyway, poor girl
At least 3 more according to a lawsuit back in 2000. https://www.thefreelibrary.com/Parents+hit+out+at+EU+over+tiny+deadly+toys.-a065156393
In America they separated the toy from the chocolate because kids were choking on it
EU kids > US kids
