Your customs experiences re-entering the US from Canada?

One thing I have found that helps is to keep your answers honest and simple. Don’t elaborate. Have only the driver do the talking unless a question is directed to a passenger. Have also found that cooked and frozen food items are much less of interest to the agents if Brian had cooked his bell pepper in with some ground meat and had it in his freezer, he probably could have enjoyed it that night for dinner. For some odd reason, once my information starts coming up on their computer screen, food is never mentioned. If the agent asks a question of you that you answer, yes or no, just sit quietly and let the agent break the silence . They are just doing their jobs and having a sense of humor, is not one of the job requirements for agents from either side of the border.
