Seattle pair detained for smuggling Canadian contraband – six Kinder Surprise eggs
I posted some pics. I can't recall when Canada started selling these, but when I was a kid and went to Germany in 1973 - this was the chocolate to buy for young children !
The chocolate egg is ediable and inside in contains that plastic oval container, which contains a toy.

Too bad you can't get them in the US !

It's not the first time it has happened, I read about it before many times !
Why bet if you will lose ?

You can search for prositution on the internet, too ! Does that make it legal ?

 

[upsgrunt]

1. You SAID we could NOT get them in the US, not that they are legal. Big difference.

2. Prostitution is legal in parts of the US.

3. Your communication skills suck.
