      No… what we got has toys, it’s just in a split clamshell kinda deal, with a toy in one half, and a Nutella like paste in the other half with a little malt ball in it. It’s crap and I hate it :)

      The split pack “freedom” version is called kinder joy, as opposed to kinder surprise.

        Interestingly, they were designed for warmer environments where Kinder eggs would melt. The fact that they circumvented the weird US restrictions was a side effect.

        Fuck man, I didn’t realize it was that bad of a remake.

        My ex Gf back into the day got pulled aside at Dulles Airport for having two boxes of Kinder Eggs. Better makes sure Noone enjoys life

        Which is funny because that version adds more choking hazards. As there is the small plastic spoon and the toy is more easy accesible to a kid.

        That said the side of the toy+ spoon can be separated by a parent and kept away and give them just the Nutella side and give them a proper spoon that they probably won’t choke on.
