regarding bringing cooked foods on the plane...we recently came back from Nassau, Bahamas, where you actually go through US Customs there in Nassau...on the way to to the airport we had picked up some cooked food "to go" to eat on the plane, as we have done in a bunch of other places...we have Global Entry, and when entering our info into the GE kiosk, we didn't declare any foods, because obviouly our intention was to eat the food before arriving on US soil...well, we were then approached by an agent and were told that my wife was "randomly" chosen for a search (probably because of the awesome smelling food <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" />), so we had to follow the agent into a back room...they ran my wife's stuff through a machine, and obviously found the cooked food...the customs agent was really nice, but gave us a stern lecture about how we should have declared the food and how they could have fined us $500 and revoked our GE privileges...we explained the food was going to be eaten before getting back to the US, but didn't make a big issue of it...oh well, c'est la vie
p.s. we did get to keep the food, and it was great <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/chef.gif" alt="" />
