Realize that the subject can be misconstrued in many ways. (especially given the cold snap we have just experienced <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />)
Curious what other Canadians' experience has been with bringing food through the US mainland on to the BVI. Specifically meet products. I am always asked if I am bringing meet and produce into the US when I cross the border but never have. obviously wondering if I can bring some nice Cosoco Kirkland prime rib down to throw on the grill on the boat to save some money. Will it be confiscated?

I'm not a Canadian,nor do I play one on TV. I would think if they area asking about it, they are going to confiscate it.

The meat in Riteway in February was a bit suspect. The butcher they had, who really had done a good job, is gone. Although it may have been fine, I wasn't going to spin the roulette wheel on the "Mexican Beef" as the steaks were labeled.

It will depend on when you are coming down. Riteway has been sold to the Canadian company that owns Cost-U-Less (North West Company) ... so ... See story here. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

Does anyone know whether the Riteway will continue to operate as Riteway, or will become a Cost U Less?

Never had a problem bringing frozen beef down thru the US in transit to BVI and no problem at BVI customs as it is for personal consumption.

Sorry to hear about that cold snap. Sounds painful. It is and gets more painful with every proceeding one! Yesterday was -24c w/ wind chill! The day before that it was +6c... stupid Canadian weather!
