Food Inspections


Can you guys (and gals) let me know the latest on driving to Loreto and the latest "rules" on bringing food into Baja. I am talking about for personal consumption such as fruits, vegies and meats. I know that when I fly to Loreto , no pork but other meats are OK but have never flown with fruits and vegies. What is OK and what is forbidden in fruit, vegies and meats when you drive down? Anything else that is a no-no in food stuff? I hate to have anything confiscated at the stops if is not on the list of no-no's. For the polite inspectors, I always have a cold soda or drink.

I will be staying at Rivera RV park in LTO form 11/30 - 12/7 and if any of you want to stop by and meet me and my dog, "Gringo the Dingo". I will be in the 30 footer with California combat wounded license plates and happy hour at Augies, so I should not be to hard to find.

I believe that no fruits, vegetables or meat is allowed past the inspection poing at Guerro Negro ...

Howard.
11/30 falls on a Sunday, and if you get here early enough, there is a small public open air market here where you can get decent veggies, fruit and meat. No need to lug it with you. The market is off Madero, in the arroyo just before Zaragoza. Anyone in Loreto can guide you there.
Maybe meet you at Augies.:?:
