    Well, UK Parliament did discuss the matter and concluded that because the choking was a result of playing with a toy with small parts, not to do with the fact that it was in an egg originally, that a ban would naturally extend to any toy with small parts.

    None of the kids accidentally ingested the toys while eating the eggs - if you’ve ever had one you’ll know why that would be impossible.

    So I’d get rid of the ban. That law was not put in place to stop Kinder Surprise Eggs - it’s an unforeseen side effect of a law that was genuinely intended to protect people when it was written.
