Kinder Eggs..
- Someone1234 8y agoKinder Eggs aren't banned in the US, Kinder Surprise is. Even Costco sells Kinder Eggs.
- jimktrains2 8y agoThe ones with the toys in then are in my understanding.
- chrisseaton 8y agoThese are not the same product as is sold in Europe.
- Someone1234 8y agoActually you can find the new style in Europe now too. They're moving away from the in-egg version everywhere.
- peterstjohn 8y agoAny evidence that Ferrero is planning to drop Kinder Surprise?
- Someone1234 8y agoYou're asking for evidence of something nobody claimed. I simply stated that the US style Kinder eggs have appeared in Europe and are for sale.
- rubyfox 8y ago“Moving away from in-egg version” suggests that Surprise will be dropped at some point. Also, Joy were introduced in Italy in 2001, so they’ve been in Europe for a long time.
- donatj 8y agoThey’re not the genuine article. If I recall and the toys either on the outside or the egg isn’t completely encompassing it.
- pbiggar 8y agoI bought one the other day. It turns out the US kinder egg is nothing like the EU one. The EU one is a chocolate shell containing a plastic package with a toy in it. the US one is two halves, one with a toy, and the other containing a (white-chocoate?) fondant with 2 hazelnut-chocolate balls in it. It was pretty bad and I threw it out after trying it.
- applecrazy 8y agoThere are two types of Kinder Eggs: Kinder Surprise[1] and Kinder Joy[2]. Kinder Surprise is banned in the US because it contains "non-nutritive objects" inside the egg. Kinder Joy packs the toy separately and has been sold in the US since 2017.

- Someone1234 8y agoThe person I responded to said "Kinder Eggs." Which they do in fact sell in the US, and this distinction doesn't change that. If they had wished to say Kinder Surprise, they could and should have done so.

- stedaniels 8y agoMy apologies, where I come from, the UK, Kinder Egg is colloquially used in place of Kinder Surprise. It wasn't until a week ago, after decades of only knowing one type of Kinder Egg, that I came across Kinder Joy. I've just seen on the Kinder Surprise Wikipedia page.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinder_Surprise https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinder_Surprise the very first line "Kinder Surprise, also known as Kinder Egg"
