I've never opened a Kinder egg without assembling the contents, sitting back and saying "What IS it?", so if you even recognized it, you're way ahead of me. Although maybe it actually was a car and you just thought it was a macaw on a perch.</p> Nice!

Pretty high quality. But it may have been a plastic car.</p> Chris, we’ve opened a ton of Kinder eggs lately, so I’m not positive about this, but I think it was a plastic macaw that rocks on a perch.

He used to adore their beef jerky, but I was recently told it's no longer produced.

I'd thought that they were still illegal in the U.S. (they may still be) under a law that assumes that little American children are too dumb to stop eating once they hit a non-food object embedded in food. I guess little children in the rest of the world are smarter, and so get Kinder eggs at every meal. </p> <p>Kinder eggs are AMAZING.</p> I am unreasonably happy to hear that you were able to buy a Kinder egg!
