We crossed into Alaska this afternoon wondering if maybe we had too much beer in our fridge for Customs to wave us through. But they didn’t ask about beer or wine or dope…the question on CBP’s mind today was “any agricultural products.”
We ended up surrendering a bag of delicious tangerines from Morocco that we picked up in Canada. We ate only 2 of them, we should have eaten more! We surrendered a dozen eggs (which we could have kept if only we had already hardboiled them.). We gave up packages of chicken thighs, frozen but not in their original packaging. Sigh
We did get to keep frozen pre-cooked chicken, an unopened bag if potatoes and part of an onion. So a few small wins!
Some of this is to prevent the spread of bird flu. I support that!
And we kept all our beer!
