What candy is illegal in the USA and why: Kinder Surprise Eggs because the toys are a choking hazard for small children. All of the toys are relatively small, and some contain even tinier pieces that need to be put together. And the real reason Kinder Eggs are banned is the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act of 1938. This Act prohibits the embedding of non-food items completely enclosed inside food items, unless the non-edible part has a functioning value. For example a lollipop or popsicle stick is not edible but is a useful handle.

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: Kinder Eggs, a chocolate treat with a toy surprise inside
The candy is illegal because of a "non-nutritive object embedded" inside them - namely a toy.

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: Candy Cigarettes were very recently ban. These candies made kids think smoking was cool, and led to ideas of smoking in young minds.
To me, horses and freedom are synonymous.

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: Throughout the whole of the US, Kinder Surprises are banned, due to the choking hazard of the toy inside. Each egg carries a fine of $2,500.
A candy that isn't banned throughout the WHOLE of the US includes the valentine heart candies in some elementary schools. They believed the candies made the kids hyper and disrupted their ability to learn.

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: Kinder Eggs because it contains a plastic capsule within the chocolate that contains a toy. Not only is the toy a choking hazard to small children, but an unedible object cannot be within an edible object.

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: One company had decided make “Gummi Road Kill,” complete with shapes of run-over raccoons, cats, and possum for a candy. Naturally, animal rights groups declared “Road Kill” was in remarkable poor taste and could encourage cruelty to animals, and so the candy was pulled before the company had a chance to roll out its next product, “gummi illegally harvested internal organs.”

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: Lollipipe - it's a lollypop... shaped like a crack pipe. xD It really couldn't get any more illegal than that! It was apparently meant for adults, but, ah... crack is crack, and it's illegal, yo.

What candy is illegal in the USA and why: It has been said already, but Kinder Eggs are one of them. They had small parts inside the chocolate egg. To this day the candy has never been allowed in the United States, which prohibits the sale of any type of candy with non-digestible ingredients inside, because of the many little children who may not suspect it and swallow that parts.
