I'm not gigantically into Easter, but hey, this Wonka "Egg Hunt: Zero Gravity" kit seemed like a fine waste of four bucks. Including an assortment of Wonka-branded candy (mostly junk, but there were a few mini-boxes of Nerds), the real reason to buy it are the set of plastic eggs that don't just enable you to create your own eggstravagant egg hunt, but do it in ways that thwart the very nature of nature. Gimmicked eggs, see. There's Super Suction Eggs, each with cute little spring-loaded suction cups attached to the sides. There's Stick Anywhere Eggs, which take egg-hiding to the extreme by way of double-sided gooey tape. There's Hanging String Eggs, finally marrying Easter and Christmas with plastic eggs that'd double perfectly as tree ornaments. There's also Glow-In-The-Dark Eggs, which don't defy gravity, but nobody will complain, because they GLOW IN THE DARK. In a world where far too many good Catholics depend on the secret caves lurking behind couch pillows to hide eggs on Easter morning, the folks at Wonka aim to bring out our creativity and spite with eggs so unbelievably hideable, you'll have no trouble making the children cry.
