If we try & get caught, what are the penalties?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Penalties include a Belize Customs Officer having a good meal and not you
Before mad cows (and even before grouchy ones) you were allowed to bring in USDA inspected meat for personal consumption. Had to apply for a permit first from agriculture authorities in Belize and pick up and pay for it at the Quarantine Officer's office at the airport.
