Ditto for meat products, unless you were careful to phrase it right so that they don't have probable cause to believe you're importing too much, the wrong kinds of meat, etc. If they have probable cause to believe a search will reveal contraband, no one will question the admissibility of whatever contraband actually turns up.

Or act really nervous. I bet that works pretty well. (Okay, I don't know this one from experience, but...) Ben: Naw, not very long, really.
