Wonder Ball
The Wonder Ball was a brand of chocolate manufactured in the United States by Nestlé and later by the Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company. The spherical candy, which weighed 3 grams, had an outer shell that was pure milk chocolate and a hollow interior containing candies and prizes. The wonder ball was wrapped in foil, placed in a small box, and packaged with a collectible sticker. == History == The Wonder Ball was first introduced in the early 1990s. The product's slogan was "What's In the Wonder Ball?" Originally called Nestlé Magic Ball, the product contained small figurines of Disney and Pokémon characters, similar to the Kinder Surprise which retails in Europe and Canada. The product was withdrawn in 1997 after competitors and consumer groups campaigned that the toy posed a choking hazard. In April 2000, the Wonder Ball was re-released with candy in place of the toys. In 2004, the brand was sold to Frankford, which later discontinued the Wonder Ball. An urban legend has circulated that the product was discontinued because a child choked and died, but in reality, the discontinuation had nothing to do with choking allegations.
