Ferrero however IS dangerous. In the US they don't sell the real version of Mon Chéri with alcohol - you get the substandard one with hazelnut paste. (Same with the Ferrero product Nutella - the US gets the substandard version)

I carried four boxes of the real stuff around with me for about a month last year, to various parts of the world. The last trip was from the US. Every single box was opened in my luggage, and one chocolate removed from each box.
