    Just a clarification for those who didn't watch until the end, Kinder Joys (which are packaged very similar to Kinder Surprises, but are a different product) are perfectly legal in the U.S. as noted in the video; it's Kinder Surprises that are not. We've gotten a lot of emails from people noting they have Kinder Surprises at their stores in the U.S. including sending pictures, but the pictures are all of Kinder Joys. :-) If you watch to the end, Simon shows the difference between the two. :-) Again, if you're seeing Kinder Surprises on the shelves of some store in the U.S. for sale, they were smuggled into the country. That's not to say anyone seems to care once you get them past customs, but they're still illegal. :-)

      +Dingier WeEvil44: The company is going to start selling the Kinder Joys all over the U.S. starting in 2018 in a major push. Currently there are places in the U.S. where you can get the Kinder Joys already though. Just not yet "everywhere" like M&Ms or the like.

      @plenumshamu4037 5 років тому +69

      No joke, the understanding we have here in Europe over the ban is that american kids are "greedy and stupid", and they would bite the egg whole without realizing there's something inside and choke on the plastic capsule, not even the smaller parts of the toy. Not a good look for America is what I'm saying.

    • @blindtruth4614
      @blindtruth4614 7 років тому +67

      I don't think you can "Win" when your child has lost its life, however there is a warning saying that the egg is not suitable for children 0-3 at least now not sure if it has always been the case though. Tragic that if these warnings were ignored though,

      Well, the hot coffee case was due to negligence on McDonald's part. (The coffee was hot enough to fuse the elderly woman's genitals shut, which is too hot to serve/drink safely and that was the real problem.) They added the "Hot contents" so it looked like the person suing was being ridiculous.

      Vi Coni First you need to stop basing your view on guns from anecdotal situations like school shootings from the news and look at mass shootings as a statical whole to understand how rare it actual is. Yes there has has been an increase but to place that on guns is obtuse. As gun laws and restrictions tighten mass shootings increase showing that there is another variable responsible for the rise. And second you have no understanding of American culture. If our government was to go tyrannical the amount of military that would obey orders isn’t high. And that’s speaking of conventional units. 90% of SOF is hardcore conservative and would be the first to rebel against a tyrannical government. This includes Green Berets whose primary job is to train a populace to fight against a tyrannical force and become a force multiplier. But let’s speculate that in the end it’s all fruitless and the American people fail to over throw the tyrannical threat. The part of American culture you don’t understand is that we’d rather die with our useless guns in our hands fighting for freedom than to surrender on our knees and live under subjugation like you up north would so gladly do.

    The re-design of the capsule for the toy is due to safety issue. When I was a kid, you could fill it up with water and some baking soda. Shake it, then duck and cover. The design back then did not let any gas out and thus, after a while the capsule would "explode". A loud BANG and the top would fly away. Now, there is some small hole and a hinge that prevent it.

Now almost all of them are a single 1 piece figurine that's no fun at all. The toy you got in the Kinder Joy that you just looked at and said "it's a piece of metal from a tv show i don't know" and then immediately put down, that's what most of the toys are like in the Kinder Suprise eggs too.

    Short answer: because the government thought you could choke on the capsules inside (which you can't) but people have protested the law.

      @xenonram 7 років тому +1

      JeezThat'sMessedUpNick You most certainly could come on it. That is the perfect size to be choked on. And if you actually watched the video, there was a girl in France that died from choking on the capstone, plus many other kids choking without dying.

      Andrew Delashaw except he showed you in the video thst the capsule is too big to be a choking hazard. By the time you are big enough to swallow it you would definitely know better

    • @christianbarnay2499
      @christianbarnay2499 7 років тому +3

      Andrew They didn't choke on the capsule. They choked on the toy after it was extracted from the capsule by someone else.
      The capsule is made tight enough that an underage kid can't open it by himself. You need an adult or at least an older brother/sister to open it and get the toy.
      As stated in the video this is less harmful than a hot dog or Xmas decorations on a cake. So the only true reason for banning it in the US is protectionism and lobbying by Mars Company.
      We have the same anti-choking regulations as the US all over Europe and Kinders sell by millions here.

      These comments, it's as if no one has ever heard of the three big capitalist cities of China.
      The Trade Cities of Hong Kong and Macao..
      And the most technologically advanced city in China, Shenzhen.
      Shenzhen ranks 22nd in the 2017 edition of the Global Financial Centres Index.
      It's literally fucking expensive to live there, not strange seeing as in 37 years it has gone from having 30000 inhabitants to 12 Million.
      It's literally a Special Economic Zone, aka the place in China that is responsible for China's money, because it's CAPITALISM HO! there.
      Oh and seeing as 100% of the population is basically people who work in Shenzhen and it is a city built on Tech.
      You probably have a lot of things at home, which is manufactured in Shenzhen. Phone batteries, phone chargers, micro chips, electronics and more.
      And if you live in a city such as Shenzhen with millions of tech people, how the hell would it be impossible to have access to internet and VPNs and whatever necessary to surf the web protected from Chinese government.

      Sure, I've heard of that amendment that gives Americans the right to bear arms and I understand that many people feel the need to own a small sidearm. But how does the 'right to bear arms' relate to rifles with telescopic sights all the way up to rapid fire military weapons and beyond ? From an outsider's point of view, when the U.S. is having a tragic mass shooting almost every other week, it seems absurd to ban this product.

      the little spoons are only in the kinder joy eggs, not the banned kinder surprise eggs

      @thespiciestboi4209 7 років тому +3

      It depends on whether or not the child is retarded. I ate those shits back since I was 4 years old and have never choked on one, and while I might be autistic, I'm not retarded

      @SuperMadsr 7 років тому +1

      My son has had those since he was 4 too.( he is 19 now) He has never chocked on the toy or spoon. Really America makes everything a bid deal. Here in South Africa these split eggs have been for sale for many, many years.

    • @Supershadow301
      @Supershadow301 7 років тому

      I remember still eating those eggs when I was 4 too. Never managed to choke on them.
      Actually, I never understood how children would even choke on toys and such... At 3 years old and under, it's fairly understandable: babies love to put stuff near their mouth.
      But 7 year olds start eating metal beads, I don't and didn't even get why or how. Like wtf, they're stupid?

    Every time I talk about Kinder Suprise Eggs and how they are illegal in the US some dum dum always says "No they are not, they are at my local store!" - NO, THEY ARE KINDER JOY'S - A DIFFERENT PRODUCT! If your local store has Kinder Suprise Eggs you are either not in the US or are delusional.

      Personally, I love the chocolate outer surface but not the white chocolate or whatever it is inner surface. I was always getting really sick of the stuff after eating about 5. Here they're sold in packs of 6, BTW.

      @PedalingPrince 7 років тому +10

      I agree. I've always preferred this more natural style; I'm not a big fan of green screen. I do, however, find the cuts between the closer and wider angle distracting. I imagine this is done to allow stumbles and stutters to be cut out. Personally I think plain jump cuts, or better yet cuts to images or B-Roll, would work better.

    I used to live relatively close to the border with Canada (less then an hour) so we would go to Winnipeg quite often. I remember my grandfather and I buying these and bringing them back for my siblings. He would always remind me not to say anything as we got to the border crossing. I would usually be playing with my toy and the guards would remark that it was nice of my grandfather to get me such a treat. They would ask if he had any unopened ones, he would reply 'as you said it was a treat and since only she came only she got one. ' Never had a problem, also never tried it when my blabber mouth was along.
