You can legally create, own, and use your own flamethrower in the majority of the US.

I can't do that in Australia, but I can buy a toy encased in a chocolate egg.

I don't see the connection here.. still, that's pretty neat, good for you

Kinder eggs are super illegal in the US. People actually get in trouble sometimes instead of just having it confiscated.

It is an extreme application of a rule saying that you can’t have non food items in food.

They sell them where I live in the US.

Are you sure those aren’t kinder joys? They are in the shape of an egg, but it splits down the middle and one half as some kind of soft chocolate candy and the other has a toy

non-boneless meat has left the chat

Just kidding, but yeah that kinda makes sense. When I was a kid I would always try to eat cake toppings because I didn't know if they were plastic or not. I can see how kinder eggs could be problematic.
