How did you not know? I remember seeing them in those boxes...well actually, I might have just known because of those commercials and that catchy song. XD;;

Yeah, I know why they stopped making them.  Americans these days... they like to sue people left and right. |

I'd sue someone if my little kid choked on a toy in their product.
Although, I wouldn't be so stupid (not counting when I was little and didn't know there were things inside them.) as to not pop the ball in half and take the toy out first. Which my mom neglected to do TT;

I wouldn't sue someone. Unless there was some kind of "false advertising" and no one knew about the toy in the product, it's really ignorance and/or stupidity on the child and/or parent that is at fault.

"However, due to choking hazard concerns, the product was withdrawn in 1997. In April 2000, the Wonder Ball was re-released with candy in place of the toys. In 2004, the brand was sold to the Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company"- Wikipedia
what the heck is frankford candy & chocolate company, and why arent they making my wonderballs?

You should go over there with yo-yos and threaten to fight them if they don't make some.

I'm just saying that Americans are so careless and then they blame companies for their own mistakes. Did you guys hear about the Spongebob suing? Parents decided to sue Nick because their kid drowned by searching for the pineapple under the sea. It was ridiculous. |

And there were those 2 girls who sued MacDonalds for making them fat. >_> I'm not a huge fan of MacDonalds but, that's just bad decisions on the girls part.

Basically, people like suing for the sake of covering up their own stupidity. -.- Of course, the blame has to go to someone. >.>

It's not to cover their stupidity, it's to make themselves some quickcash.
