The main question was the value of a grinding machine to process corn

be declared.  Further inspection though, uncovered another item. Frozen
food in a cooler.  Eight rats.  Skinned and cleaned, ready to cook.

I sometimes watch "Border Patrol" and "To Catch a Smuggler"
and it's in the USA, different entrances, Canada, Australia,
New Zealand, Colombia, etc.  It's amazing the stuff people
attempt to bring in and it's seized.  Many times they get
fined because they lied on the declaration card they filled
out.  Arrested as well for smuggling drugs.
