Until recently, we've never had any issues at either border crossing, but the last entry into the US was complicated with an "agricultural inspection", lasting about an hour while we had to wait in the Homeland Security building. Some of our perishables were confiscated to "examine the products for insects".
Given this experience, the next time we enter the US, we're going to have an empty fridge and empty pantry. We'll visit an "Aldi" shortly after crossing.
IMHO, it just isn't worth the hassle, particularly when the US rules and regulations seem to constantly change.
However, when crossing back into Canada, we will definitely stock up, again at an Aldi. (We don't have any financial interest in Aldi, but sure wish they were here in Canada!)
