"Kinder Surprise eggs are legal in Canada and Mexico, but are illegal to import into the US. In January 2011, the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) threatened a Manitoba resident with a $300 (Canadian dollars) fine for carrying one egg across the US border into Minnesota.[43] In June 2012, CBP held two Seattle men for two and a half hours after discovering six Kinder Surprise eggs in their car upon returning to the US from a trip to Vancouver. According to one of the men detained, a border guard quoted the potential fine as US $2,500 per egg.[44]"

Like sure, ban the sale, but why the ownership or importation without intention to sell? That seems to overstep the actual usefulness of the law. Like I can put toys in candy in my home and presumably if I don’t try to sell it, it’s legal.

Holy shit. When I came back from germany 2 years ago I brought like a whole box of them for my kids. That would have been like a $75,000 box.
