me-personally,
don't fool with the pre-packaged stuff

i get fresh from Lucea market or a street-vendor::::
..e.g., thyme, the curly ginger root, cinnamon bush, nutmeg WITH the mace, pimento seeds (aka allspice), and a few other things ... tried hard, last trip, but couldn't find fresh homemade coconut oil ... also get fresh locally stolen-from-bees honey

folks,
it's BEST to do as boardie-Marko said:::>>> ''..DECLARE" that stuff on your USofA form, 'cause they might confisicate it if you're ever searched and they find it and you didn't declare it......if they don't take it from you, they probably WILL give you a tongue lashing for not declaring.

just make SURE the leafy stuff like thyme & cinnamon bush is dry-dry ... they don't like/allow entry-with-it if it's too green. :::: so buy it early-early before your departure date.
