Hopefully someone will be kind enough to read and respond to my question within the next 12 hours!
I am leaving for the states tomorrow. My in-laws have given me an entire cheese wheel to give to my parents. I have scoured the following govīt websites:
http://www.customs.gov/travel/know.htm#Food http://www.aphis.usda.gov/travel/ There are detailed lists about what cannot be brought in. Cheese is not listed. There is one section that states that pastries and CERTAIN cheeses may be brought in. However, nothing detailed. Has anybody had any experience bringing an entire cheese wheel into the USA (and declaring it, of course!
)??
I would hate to arrive in Philadelphia tomorrow only to have them confiscate the cheese under the premise that it is not one of the allowed cheeses.
Please help! Thanks!
