Tom, Have you ever taken cheese with you. We were thinking of taking a good strong chedder as can never find a decent tasting chedder in Florida. Some people have send you can as long as it is sealed.
Have you or anyone else taken cheese. Melvin and Lesley

If you avoid soft cheese, unprocessed nuts and seeds, fresh fruit and anything that has a meat derivative in it. Bovril would not be allowed as it is beef extract whereas Marmite is Ok because it is derived from yeast. Any food you had on the plane - leave it there.
Cereals, tea, coffee, biscuits, chocolate etc are all fine. Yes, you might get a smart remark of the Customs Officer like "We have shops here you know" but just let it go. Full info is here: help.cbp.gov/app/answers/det...r-personal-use And be sure to tick "Yes" to Question 11 if you have to fill out a customs form: Edited at 09:21 AM. |

Hi. No never taken cheese sorry but Geoff has clarified above.
My concern would be with it 'sweating' albeit maybe a vacuum sealed pack would be ok. I know what you mean about strong cheddar - or not! It took me years of trying different stuff from Publix to get anything remotely like a good English Cheddar. Pre packed the 'Cabot' Extra Sharp isn't bad. However their Canadian Extra Mature from the deli counter is pretty good. Maybe 80% of the strength I like but quite nice. If you want something different try Humboldt Fog. It's a goat cheese but with the flavour of Stilton but an extra tang to it. Awesome.

Keeping cheese cool is going to be a problem as they wouldn't allow ice gel packs in hand luggage.

Maybe this is a daft question but do you need to declare tea bags? Or do they sell decent tea bags in Walmart?

I looked last year about cheese on the officials customs site and hard cheese like chedder was ok, I also took dairy free spread for toast, there is a really comprehensive list on there of whats allowed and whats not. I still declare everything I have I write it on piece of paper that I keep with my passport

we did the 'buy it all there' option last time we went and ended spending countless hours in Walmart and not always finding what we want. Now trying to take some stuff (only spices as being Indian we need some home cooked food to keep us going lol). Thanks we will certainly be taking and not worrying. It is what it is. As long as we declare we good.

Yes you need to declare - have a look at the link posted by Geoffa in #13.
We don't drink tea though so never look in that aisle in the supermarket. Mick
