Yes, but they aren't easy to find. But when I do find them, they're AWESOME. Mostly because Grape is included. Oh, and for some reason they glitter. Must be MAGIC.
I have been away for a few months so you didn't miss anything. :D
Glittery jelly beans. Jesus. What will they think of next? :D
Yes! We have Creme Eggs all the time. I wonder why they only sell them to you at certain times. Maybe it's because we're genetically resistant to their chemicals and can handle them, whereas you guys haven't been able to build it up in your system yet, so they're weening you onto them gradually. I also hear that you don't get Kinder Surprise eggs there either, which is slightly sad. Not for the chocolate, that tastes horrible, but I think you'd love the little toys that come inside them.
I'm not sure what a Kinder Surprise Egg is, but there used to be something like that. (probably.) I kind of remember the theme song in the commercial. Not exactly, but this was the gyst of it:
"What's inside the colorful foil? What's inside? A chocolate ball! What's inside the chocolate ball? A Disney toy!!!" choking hazard!!
It was discontinued shortly thereafter because kids were shoving the chocolate ball down their throats and choking on the toy. Turns out that chocolate is enough surprise for an American child, I guess.
Actually my lyrics were almost dead on. It was replaced with candies and renamed the Wonder Ball, I think less than a year later.
Hahaha, I don't think anybody has ever died from Kinder egg here, though fatalities from marble chokings hover at a respectable rate.
A Kinder egg is just a hollow chocolate egg with a toy inside. Sometimes the toys are actually pretty good, like little colouring pens that look like a dinosaur, or a bird that chirps when you turn it's head. Sometimes not so much though. I got a cloth frisbee in one of my last ones, it was pretty boring.
Oh god that sucks. I'm not even sure if our cereals and things have prizes in them any more. I think most of them just have codes for virtual prizes in the box these days, which is nowhere near as cool.

Maybe you can buy them online? http://www.cvs.com/shop/product-detail/Starburst-Jellybeans-Original?skuId=181826 Also, I heard you guys have Cadbury Creme eggs year 'round over there. Is that true, or just a tourism ploy??
Also, hey! You're back! At least, it seemed like you were gone for a while, but I hardly ever read my friends page anymore. Oops.
