Happy Hippo Biscuits

First of all, I love Kinder.  I love their wonderful little eggs with toys because deep inside (okay maybe not that deep), I'm still a kid.  If only other kids would only stop choking on them.  I guess the Europeans win again.  We are stuck in the US with only those stupid paper toy abominations in Cracker Jacks. 

In any case, being deprived of chocolate eggs filled with toys, I saw this. 


It looks like a wonderful little cookie, but really, it seems the selling point is the ability to take a bite out of a hippo's ass. 

I mean, seriously? Did they have to do that?  And not only that, there's another poor hippo right next to it who has to LOOK at the butchered bottom of his friend.  And, I'm fairly certain I don't have to mention that what is inside the creamy cross-section of this halved hippo's hiney?  That's right... chocolate. 

This lovely little box comes with individually wrapped hippos.

And yes... they are delicious.  
Oh, delicious creamy chocolate hippo...  The cookie part tastes kind of like the outside of a Nutter Butter cream patty and the inside tastes like Nutella.  There's some chocolate sprinkle type things around the outside too so that you make sure to make a crumby mess when you eat it.  Perfect. :)
