Of all the stories you and Christopher have experienced at Customs, all over the world, this has to be the most intriguing. But I shall certainly sleep better tonight knowing the US Customs officers understand that Canadian microbes in fermented food are not nefarious!

This is like Aussie customs, so strict! I’m surprised you haven’t had this sort of treatment before. What a waste though, sigh

Haha, yeah I haven't traveled by car through a border...usually I am on a plane and don't have fresh stuff--just ferments. It was the waste of the good organic veggies that had been from the US that felt the worst though--the waste is hard.
