What foods are illegal in America and why? I’m guessing kinder was banned because some little retard ate the toy

The law that bans Kinder Eggs from the US, the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetics Act, was passed way back in 1938, decades before Kinder Eggs were created. It has a small portion that basically says you can't put non food items inside of a food item, unless the non food item has a practical purpose (like a popsicle stick). Now, this law prevents genuinely deceptive crap like putting a cardboard spacer in something to make it look like there is more food, but also bans toys.

I spent 7 hours in a holding cell at the Peace Arch border crossing in WA when I was 22 because some friends and I were "smuggling" kinder eggs over the border to give to our friends at WWU and our car got randomly searched. We got cuffed and interrogated and everything. They threatened to charge us with organized smuggling of contraband goods or some shit. Fun times.

No other fruit pie had a similar restriction, the law was pushed by a senator from a state that grows cherries.
A 'cherry pie' with <25% cherries might be shit but it will be appropriately cheap shit and some consumers will want it, like a 99 cent taco bell burrito with half an ounce of meat in it.

Kinder Buenos were a thing way before kinder came to America. They were really big in South America. The real reason we don't have Kinder Surprise is some jewy candy company down in florida filed a patent on the design that workaround the current FDA rules.
