GalCruzer Posted June 6, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2016 What if you want to buy any of these items; spices or sauces, I'm talking if you were able to buy them from a reputable restaurant. But would it be a problem getting them on the ship and back home to the U.S.? And of course talking about unopened sealed products too. Anyone ever done this? Was thinking about when we're in Jamaica and Mexico. (Wasn't sure where to put this question ) :) TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmh9092 Posted July 6, 2016 #2 Share Posted July 6, 2016 I try and buy "local" hot sauce wherever I go. I've never had a problem bringing it back on the ship or through customs. (P.s, my favorite hot sauce has been from St. Maarten. It came in a definitely local made/packed bottle, but it was fantastic!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GalCruzer Posted July 6, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Good to know. That was my concern about getting it back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted July 21, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Never had an issue. We buy from markets. We like a certain Italian seasoning from Campo di Fiori in Rome. DD brings back a kilo every time she returns home. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawjaFatBoy Posted July 22, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Never had a problem. We've brought sauces, spices, coffee, etc. back on almost every cruise with absolutely no issues. Just be sure to pack them well! Broken bottles in your luggage is NOT a good thing!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfantum Posted July 23, 2016 #6 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Have brought back many different spices from St. Maarten and vanilla from the Bahamas. I have heard that there could be problems with some whole seeds if they are looked at as agricultural products instead of food, but I have no idea which that would be.
