The Kinder eggs with actual chocolate (Kinder Surprise) are still banned; only the Kinder Joy eggs with cream and cocoa wafers separated from the toy are allowed, which aren’t nearly as interesting of an experience in my opinion.
I think this issue reflects an interesting difference in regulatory philosophy and how we might choose to protect freedoms vs public health, and what sorts of items are seen as “too bad to be allowed.”
I absolutely love how Americans think they’re the only ones with freedom, while KINDER FUCKING EGGS were banned for decades.

Haha that’s great. Land Of The Free!
Land of the too stupid not to inhale their food like a vacuum cleaner.
Kinder Eggs were/are banned because of food safety.
In this 2016 example a girl died from choking on a piece of a toy from a kinder egg.
