EGGED ON Kids are lured by a toy

Surprise! Just in time for Easter, the international Kinder Surprise chocolate eggs are featuring something special—a small toy inside made in Israel. The Israeli company Modular Toys is manufacturing mini race track pieces and cars that will excite young children all over Europe.

The sweet surprise eggs are very popular with Israeli kids as well, but they are less known in North America where the tiny toy pieces are considered too dangerous for small children. If you are from the States and pick up a Kinder egg on your next trip to Israel, better eat it while you are here. Otherwise you too might be surprised with a $2,000 fine (per egg!) for trying to “import” the Kinder chocolates into the US.
