Is this the most irresponsible idea for a children's snack ever? Is it just me, or is making food that looks like Lego bricks really fucking stupid? I'm assuming if you collect enough tokens from the packets you can send away for a set of toddlers' finger warmers in the shape of an electric wall socket. |

its the ingredients that scare me! but yeah - i agree, it won't be long before some kid eats a real one by mistake - although i'm sure that already happens! my oldest sister ate a penny when she was a kid - and she didn't mistake that for a chocolate coin  |

| I'm amazed it got into production - it's almost worth choking a child for the suing rights! |

They have had a version of these things in Canada for at least 10 years. Not sure if they're made by Kelloggs, but the candy is very similar to a Sweet Tart but shaped like Leggo. So basically, we tell our children not to put they're toys in their mouth and then we make a candy that encourages them to do that. Doesn't make sense at all. Don't know about any reports of children choking but I wouldn't be surprised.
Hmmmm.... I work across the street from the Canadian Kelloggs plant... maybe I should just go tell them how we all feel!!! |

| That is not a clever idea at all. I can't imagine what they were thinking. |
