| Probably a dumb ? but... who else can I ask but the PP folk? Okay, I know we can take our own snacks on board, as long as they're unopened, but I'm wondering if we can take them off at the end of the cruise if they've been opened? I'm thinking about these yummy granola bites from Sam's that are a great snack, but I know we won't finish the whole bag in 4 days. Oh, and I know not to try to smuggle bananas thru customs!

| Not a dumb question at all, because I don't know the answer, but I'm sure someone here does. ![]()

| From what I understand, there is no OPEN food on or off the boat. The problem is, it's hard for them to verify that the food in the open bag is the original food and not something that was put in there from a foreign port that may bring in unknown dangers. So, while I'm sure there are people who've "gotten away with it" and people who've had open food confiscated, it's probably best to play it safe, if you're not willing to lose whatever you don't consume on the ship.

| If you bring fresh fruit/veggies/meats/fish, open prepared foods, and a variety of other items off the ship, you're in violation of the agricultural quarantine rules. They have a table before you get to baggage claim with a big sign - if you drop the food there, no harm, no foul. If, say, customs ends up inspecting your baggage (it's not common, but it can happen) and they find an item that violates the quarantine, they may treat it as, "You've already been warned," and hit you with a stiff fine as well as confiscation. The odds may be small, but probably not worth the value of a few leftovers.

| Knew about the fresh fruits/veggies thing, but not the rest. So I guess we'll either have to finish the snacks or pitch them before we debark. Thanks for the info!
