We cross the border often and are seldom bothered by food issues. There seems to be a craze against citrus, not sure why since neither the northern border states or the provinces are significant citrus growers, but the rules is the rules! Meat, especially beef goes on and off the controlled list depending on the day of the week (it seems) and whether someone has had an outbreak of something on one side of the border or the other.
If an inspector want to, and if they see the lemons on the refer door where they were told they were and deny seeing them (true story) they can do that too. Be prepared to declare what you have and accept it when they tell you something must be discarded. The worst they will do is trash can an item. Answer questions with simple answers and do not volunteer that Aunt Sophie made the cake.
