The chocolate is, of course, yummy but the best part about the egg-shaped Kinder Surprise capsule is to find interesting toys in it. But this 5-year-old boy from Northern Ireland found something in his Kinder joy egg that didn't look anything like a toy.

He opened the 'egg' to discover a bag of white powder, before innocently handing it over to his father.

"The contents of the bag, which was found inside a toy egg, is believed to be meth amphetamine. This small quantity of drugs will be disposed by police," Inspector Colin Shaw said in a Facebook Post.

"This incident is of the uppermost concern for all of us. Tackling the use and supply of illegal drugs is a priority for us and the possibility that something so potentially dangerous has been discarded where children could find it is deeply concerning."

Limavady Democratic Unionist Party councillor Alan Robinson told the Belfast Telegraph that it was "by the grace of God" the item was passed to the children's father who alerted the police. He said, "As a father of a child, I know how enticing Kinder eggs and their contents are to children."
