Fruits & Veggies

[Irine]

Ahh, I care about your posts TAH, most times they are insightful and it's tough being a realist. I also tend to see the single binding thread behind 50 or 60 responses to one question. "Can I bring limes?", "Well on any given Sunday they may take them". End of post. VI can make up her own mind after that. Asked and answered. I can't tell you how many times I've wanted to write that into a thread, but then I think the same thing you do "no one cares" and I don't bother. My problem is I'm a realist with an acute sense of humor. My first response that came to mind to post was "Alright, I have a lime mule". (message me privately VI about a lime deal if I'm there when you are). My humor, which most times people don't get anyway, usually ends up enlightening no one, and the ping pong ball of right and wrong gets paddled back and forth with seemingly no winner until the thread dies, or it gets locked up.

But just so you know, I read every thread you post with interest. There are a handful of folks on the board who we would really like to meet as what they have said brightens our day, I don't pay much attention to a lot of the rest. Remember opinions are like assh#*#s, everybody has one.

All produce imported into the US (and thus most anything leaving the US) has been treated to kill any potential organisms. And I think it's at best in poor taste for everyone to jump on vi about simply relating her experience. This kind of thing is exactly why I don't post here much at all (I realize nobody cares about that, but I can't be the only one).

If the actual customs official directly told her that it applies to commercial importers, that should at least be acknowledged. But all anyone seems to want to do is argue about it. It's a bad look.
