The 450 prohibited pork meat tamales were discovered by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agriculture specialists working at the airport on Nov. 2, according to CBP officials. Authorities say the unidentified passenger marked "Yes" to bringing in food on a customs declaration, but when asked whether the food contained any pork meat products, the passenger gave a "negative verbal declaration". Have you ever tried to smuggle in something through an airport, or lie in regards to custom's rules?
