AFAIK the only place where those rules are enforced is Lukevile. The rules are ridiculous and are there for trade protection. There is C--p in Mexican pet food that I would not give to our cat.

Moisheh - with all due respect, these laws are on the books at the Federal level. Segarpa has been very active in enforcement of these rules, not just at Lukeville but across the total Ports of entry.
It is just that Lukeville is a tourist crossing only, it does not allow commercial activity so the agents at Lukeville are probably a bit more diligent knowing that Rvers and weekend warriors tend to bring their own food in.
It would be a shame to lose valuable food in the hopes of not being inspected say at Nogales or Tijuana. Further on this, there are new Agents that work for Sagarpa at every Port of Entry as of September 16th. Just be forewarned, thats all.
