I am literally just making this up on the spot and have no evidence for it, but I’m starting to wonder if maybe the real reason for the kinder egg ban was anticompetitive lobbying by Hershey or something like that, and the toy thing was just the excuse.
The american law prohibiting objects in food predates the kinder eggs by decades. And it’s because people use to put all kinds of shit in american food. The law that bans them into is the Food, Drug and Cosmetic act of 1938.
No godamn idea. I don’t have to worry about that law and I don’t know what exemption they used. I know it exists, why, and that kinder eggs are prohibited due to this law.
It wasnt the “toy thing” theres a law about putting inedible choking hazards in food. The food drug and cosmetic act of 1938. It bans putting any toy or inedible object in candy unless it is a functional part of the food. So the capsule in the kinder egg isnt ok but the wooden stick in a popsicle, the stick of a lollypop or the ring of a ring pop is.
GPT needs another LLM trained on only the stupid things people do and how to avoid doing horrible things to yourself and others to watch over each conversation and intervene.

Then how did we have toys in cereal boxes and cracker jacks up until much more recently?
Because it’s not inside the food itself.
Huh, okay. I’m assuming there was another law that caused those to get yanked as well?

Yeah, people like to mock us about it, but I think it’s a reasonable regulation.

In all fairness, the guy was a fuckin’ idiot before Jippity tested a latent murder-sim theory it’s been puzzling over.
Both are dumbasses swallowing anything
