"Don't put small inedible things inside edible things" doesn't sound like a bad rule to me, to be honest.

OTOH, how many children got Kinder Eggs ~without~ knowing that there was a small plastic toy inside? That was kind of the whole gimmick.

Also, there have been 9 reported deaths worldwide that have been linked to choking on the toy inside a Kinder Egg. 7 Children in the US die ~every day~ from being shot. It seems pretty clear to me which one is a bigger issue.

Hey, I'm not American, I just wish our food adulteration laws were as comprehensive as theirs.
