You see, a long time before Kinder Eggs were ever invented, the recently-formed FDA decided in 1938 that non-nutritive objects should never be allowed inside food.

Now on the other hand, parents teaching kids how to use their guns has been a great American pastime ever since settlers have come to this land, and the only people that this truly bothers are the ones that would never even touch a gun if they had a choice.

So it's in the same container but not hidden in the chocolate?

So why are toys allowed in a box of cereal?

Because the box and/or the bag the cereal is in is not the edible being sold. The cereal is the edible and the toy may be packaged along side the cereal in the same container, but the toy is not encapsulated inside a piece of cereal.

If you had a cereal brand that put a toy inside a big-ass Chex or some shit, then it would be banned.

I would say because they are not IN the cereal. Just among it like with crackerjacks.

Of the 5,051 people who died from choking

Roughly half as many as gets murdered via a gun. Seems like guns are fairly safe considering "wahh only used to kill"

Minors can't touch a firearm legally without explicit parental supervision.

Kinder eggs are just caught in the crossfire of a well-meaning but ultimately flawed law.

If anyone cares, I was inspired to make this thread after reading a comment from a Canadian poster elsewhere.

'Murica. Where kinder eggs are illegal cause they could be dangerous, but they literally won't even try to write down who has what weapons of war.

I am fine with even agree with the law of not allowing good to have toys or other things in side it that would be chocking hazards to little kids. Also the laws for stuff like that and guns are very different things handled by different people so you can't compare the two ether.
