Thankfully, we can get Kinder Eggs here in the US, though a little pricier than the regular candies. Luckily for the OP, York peppermint patties are much cheaper.

Just saying...

 

Okay... You are off duty and bored. We get it. Just saying. You need a friend ---> :girl_devil:

Actually we can get the York Peppermint Patties here from an importer but pricey as well.

LOL Actually, I AM working, Tom, till 7am if we don't get held out longer because of the storm. And yes, I'm bored! haha Not a soul on the road except for this dude that just ran off the road a few minutes ago and hit a parked vehicle. He said he was not speeding. Yea right.

Then we surely can agree that the kinder eggs are much better :)

 

I don't know if it's a NYC thing are a big city thing, but there are lots of foreign candy, even at regular supermarkets. It's a great thing....European chocolate is much better. I remember when I had to bring M&M's to a friend in Madrid. Now you can find it there everywhere.

 

All this talk makes me think of the missing PMDG 777 in my life...

Kinder eggs are great, unfortunately not allowed in the USA because the FDA won't allow toys inside food (considered a choke hazard).

 

They aren't really a choke hazard as they are a chocolate egg with a plastic capsule inside, toy inside the plastic capsule.....Anyhow, they have toys inside cereal boxes in the USA so this isn't really that much different:

Oh ok, I see now... They look good indeed. As for the choke hazard, it's all BS. It's all about liability and preventing people who don't know how to chew, to go on a suing frenzy. Just like having to put WARNING HOT CONTENT on coffee cups because one lady sued after she burnt he mouth drinking hot coffee. What, was she expecting ice cold coffee? Ridiculous.

Yea but what I would give to get some good marinated BBQ ribs, Buffalo Wings, Chicago style Pizza, Deep Fried Turkey and all that other good ole American food in New Zealand. These guys are too much into pies and sausages down here. LOL

 

Next time I am in the USA I am buying a Turkey Fryer from Walmart and bringing that into New Zealand.....

 

Cheers

A turkey fryer? Really? Does something like that actually exist?

 

Edit: Checked on Google and they do exist!! Amazing.

Over 10 years here and AVSIM is still my favourite FS site :-)

Oh heck yeah... just google so u can see one...

 

Supposed to be very tasty and very quick cook time.

 

I never bought because I'm a bit worried about all that grease... plus the wife sticks the bird in the oven overnite on low temp... and it's real treat to wake up smelling it cooking... meat just melts in your mouth...

 

Time to call her and have her get another one! Brb! :lol:

Yeah that was some nut woman and McD's... and I remember their coffee was HOT and if you had a lick of common sense would wait a bit to sip. Good for road trips where u pull off to buy the coffee... get gas and 20 minutes later once back on the road the stuff was still pleasantly hot.

 

Now you have to chug-a-lug right away. :(

Hooked on chocolate in general. Let's see, start the day with chocolate croissant, have some M&M peanuts around 10 a.m., have some more after lunch around 1:30pm, After dinner, have some sort of Ho-Ho or other chocolate item. AT restaurants -- volcano cake, Thunder Down Under, chocolate cake, mmmm...time to get more.
