I think I know who you are talking about. His name was something like McIntire...or something like that. Nice man! I bought some tea and a few spices but I used it all before I left. I know in the past I have brought back coffee beans that were freshly roasted in a large ziplock bag with no labels. Packed them and no problems. Again, that doesn't mean on any given day, TSA could decide to check everything. Would be a pain in the backside but as long as one knows they have nothing illegal, hopefully just time consuming and irritating. Guess it depends on just how much you want it at home and the luck of the draw.
