Do you think its ok for the USA to ban Kinder Surprises?

it should be aloud it Is a chocolate candy from Germany with a plastic case that conceals a toy there is nothing wrong with it. the reason it is banned is because of the law in the usa that does not allow food to have ineditable things in it witch is the plastic egg inside.

The USA does not ban Kinder Surprises as such. Rather, in 1938 the first FDA act restricted the hiding of foreign objects inside of sugary without an FDA exemption. Kinder Surprises has only been manufacturing these little candy traps since the '70's. Since 80% of all childhood deaths by choking take place while an adult is in the room and small children can't be reasonably expected to read or mind warning labels, the risk associated with the distribution of such products clearly far outweighed any potential benefit (which is essentially none). Govt of, by, and for the people demands that each person assume their portion of responsibility for the collective welfare. The question is less should the govt. ban such a product than why would any worthy businessmen would continue to manufacture a product that can and does kill children while offering no reciprocal benefit? If the decision is left to Govt. then of course any decent bureaucrat would prefer to error on the side of fewer dead children. The larger question is why, in a democracy, the citizenry can't themselves make child safety a priority by shaming and rejected the manufacturer. Would it be okay if McDonald's hid the happy meal toy inside the hamburger? Would it be okay be ok if Mars hid hot wheels inside a snicker's ? It seems that the recent media attention stems from a popular series of Kinder Star Wars collectibles. It is perfectly legal to sell the toys when they aren't concealed in chocolate. It is perfectly legal to enjoy the chocolate so long as choking hazards aren't hidden inside. Nobody is being denied access to one specific thing, rather a risk is being sidestepped. The risks so grotesquely outweigh the benefits that yes, I think its okay.
