So Americans don't have Kinder Eggs?

I'm reading this article about a woman who was trying to cross the border with a Kinder Surprise egg finding out that the reason it was confiscated was because they're illegal in the states due to a choking hazard? Before I read the article I thought it was because she had tried to smuggle drugs in it or something, but no - its because its a choking hazard? Are you effing kidding me? Weapons<KinderEggs....
Now tell me my fellow friends to the south...just how do you get on in life without the occasional indulgence of a Kinder Surprise?

kinder is pretty much nonexistent in the US from what i've seen. It's ridiculous!

Still, I've never had any problem bringing it in.

I always bought a bunch in Whistler whenever I was there as a kid.  Those things are truly magically delicious, way more than lucky charms.

Kinder eggs > American candy.   Japanese candy > any other candy.

that's the dumbest shit i've ever heard, what are the two best candies of all time? butterfinger and reese's, neither of which are european or japanese, also i dont even know what japanese candy is but i would guess it is weird as fuck and full of anime just like everything else from japan so it probably blows

now now - this isn't a candy flame war...after all - Americans do have the delicousness of REECE Peanut Butter....yes we have the cups and all the variations, but not the actual Peanut Butter in a jar. And, while I'm at it, you also still have Kraft Spray Cheese - one of the greatest inventions man kind has ever made. I would KILL to have that shit in Canada, and I guarantee Canadian Border Services wouldn't confiscate it or classify it as "deadly and hazardous".....but I digress....

Hahaha.  Reeses are baller, gotta love those.  Never really liked Buttefingers but I always eat them when people give them to me.

Most Japanese candy is probably weird as fuck and shaped like hello kitty.  But some of the stuff they have is epic, especially if you like gummi candy which happens to be my fav type of candy.

M&M Crispy where the shit.  I always got those when they had em.
I don't eat much candy anymore though.  I'd rather have a bag of tortilla chips or something, or ice cream.

I can live without kinder eggs. Bueno bars are a little bit harder to be away from.

Although I can say that Canada and Europe have the most terrible Mexican food I have ever experienced. Europe is just terrible, spicy food can not be found in Eastern Europe. I never realized how great Mexican food is before leaving Colorado. Even back east and the mid west is a disgrace when it comes to spicy food.

I have never had a kinder egg, but a plastic toy inside a chocolate egg does not seem like a good idea. It kind of reminds me of wonderball, but those were filled with candy instead of plastic, which is a wonderful idea.

What, I have them at my corner bodega. Maybe people who live in bumblefuck don't have them, or it could just be that a lot of Europeans live around me.
