Answer 1

you cant take produce back with you. but like candy you can

Answer 2

NO, its pork so customs cant let it thru.

Failure to declare food products can result in a $10,000 fine.

Answer 3

if it's wrapped in a vacuum package intended for sale in the USA, it will clear customs.   Try buying it at the airport when you leave.

Answer 4

legally no, but if it is sealed and in your luggage, i don't see how they would find out, unless they do a spot search. then again, the fine might be too much to risk.

Answer 5

YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU.

OK, couldn't resist that one.  

;)

Answer 6

No, it's not allowed and will be confiscated, regardless of how it's packaged.

There isn't any hope of smuggling it, either. They've got dogs in customs now, you know.

Answer 7

Customs may not let it through ( you have to sneak it).

So your taking a chance with a very expensive product.

If your live in the USA, it is now available in upscale gourmet markets.

"Pata Negra".

We sell it here in Florida.

Answer 8

I believe you can only bring back cheese.

Answer 9

Like many others who responded.  Customs usually confiscate pork products (even though it's preserved); possibly fine you; and they do have beagles that sniff baggages.
