I personally think the US ban is pretty stupid. They have been around since I was a kid and not only have I never been so dumb as to choke on the toy, but I have never known a single person in Canada or Australia who ever has, be that when they were a kid or with their own kids.
I mean if there is really such a concern towards toddlers or whatever choking on them then have an age restriction on them for like age 5 and up.
If kids 5 or older are dumb enough to shove toys down their throat then that's natural selection... And jail the parents for raising a dumbass.

No it's the parents responsibility to buy it or not for them. They know the hazard. So they should keep an eye on their child while they have it
wow un yet children can gain access to guns and kill each other but they can't have a little chocolate egg... i witnessed a video recently where a four year old boy could load and change the cartridge on a serious looking weapon with absolute glee filmed at some sort of gun show/event and yet legally these eggs are banned? unrelated yes these eggs should be banned for the fact they are unhealthy for human consumption and the toy is unhealthy trash for the environment xx
Nah people should just watch what they gove their kids. Everythings a choking hazard these days

NO, love those egg when we were in Germany, I was happy when I finally seen a display of them here in the US got three of them and when I got home and opened I was so pissed I never opened the other two. You see the US version a ugly half egg and the other of the egg a even uglier toy. The German egg is a cool whole chocolate egg you crack open and out comes a plastic holder with a neat toy. Some told they were like illegal here I the US. Guess they are to many dumb ass kids in America or maybe the sue happy parents.
I think it's ridiculous enough that these are banned in the US. Parents should supervise their children, and children young enough to put these in their mouth shouldn't be given chocolate anyway, as it contains far too much sugar and caffeine for their little systems.
Weak. Let Darwinism take effect.
I live in Canada so I grew up with these treats and I’m perplexed as to how a child could choke on that unless they opened their mouth like a snake and ate it from the ass end while dangling it above their head... there’s quite a bit of air between the chocolate and the toy...Ofc it shouldn't be banned. If you are not smart enough to not buy your obviously too little to understand the danger kid a kinder egg, and then end up being even dumber by not watching over the said kid, I would say you are a fail of a parrent
Nope, I like these and so does my daughter. Many people like these lol. Lots of things are a choking hazard but we dont go around banning everything lol
Hell no, I loved those as a kid. And those plastic capsules are pretty big, how the hell do you even choke on that?
In my country each Kinder egg contains a very long folded piece of paper containing disclaimers and warnings about the choking hazard. I think that most parents only buy them for older children (around 6 years and older), who are less prone to putting things in their mouths than younger children.
Lol no but I only used to get them purely for the toys, the chocolates were shit
So, are all toys that size banned in the US? Are they at least consitent with that law?

Yet you buy riffles for children in the US.
Go figure. God no, I love them. Used to get Kinder eggs all the time when I was younger
Hell no that’s actually my favourite chocolate treat
American logic.
Child grows up around guns = safe
Child eats chocolate with a clear choking hazard and a toy that is so big it would take an idiot to swallow it= not safe.Nope. Kinder surprise is my favorite chocolate and I've never seen a kid choke on the toys.
No, only in usa people are stupid enough to try and put the whole thing in their mouth, or believe that every part of it is edible.
My childhood is based off these eggs. No they should not be banned. Parents should just tell their kids there's a toy inside. Simple.
Yes. Little children don't think so much about what they are doing and the parents can't watch every single second after it. It should be banned.
They used to be banned but the new ones aren’t on the US
Sorry but i loved them growing up, naturally don't give them to like 2 year olds because then it can be, but if you raise your kids not to be morons then there's no issue, and if there is, well that's just natural selection
