2. Kinder Surprise.

3.Four Loko.

The original recipe of these alcoholic drinks added caffeine on alcohol. Scary, right?

The result of this combination was a number hospitalizations of college students throughout the country. This result led to the drink being banned in most states in 2010.

The company has since revised the recipe.

4. Mira-belle Plums

Mira-belle plums are grown in Lorraine, France.

Varieties of these plums are cultivated in the US but you will have to travel to Lorraine, France for the O.G plums.

5. Japanese Puffer Fish.

The US has passed the law against the capture, harvest, eating or serving fish that is puffy and prickly-fugu.
