Isn't Kinder banned in the U.S.? Yep, especially the Kinder Surprise with the toy inside the egg. but there is a version being sold in the United States with the toy and chocolate separated. Also did not know, but according to its Wikipdidia site: Kinder Surprise eggs are still illegal in the USA but remain popular on the black market.What about buying Kinder in Canada or Mexico and then crossing the U.S. border? Is that illegal? That said, I'm pretty sure Willy Wonka would get the same idea of putting a toy in a chocolate.

Unless wonky possibly sold little toys made by Oompa Loompas I guess not. Perhaps wonka thought of selling toys that Oompa Loompa children played with. The kinder eggs we have in the USA the are not the same as eroupe as they are kinder joys in the USA

Just came across this thread and it made me wonder how Willy Wonka's recipes would've been different since there are different chocolate regulations in the USA vs the European Union for instance. I will assume this takes place in 2013 (when the musical debuted).

Also, perhaps some of the Rotton kids' parents didn't sue Willy Wonka because it did their children good. I wonder what Wonka would do to counter obesity fat. Free is usually taste-free. Also, if there is her shy and Cadbury, perhaps not in this world. I am interested in whether Wonka would have toot sweets for the sake of the movie.

The original wonky and the chocolate 🍫 factory 🏭 Willy Wonka was probably a better person than the Tim Burton one. Here is why because the original one knew they were gonna be better people afterwards

The interesting question would be, what would Wonka eat on a regular basis? If it is candy, how does he stay not being fat?
