Poll: When you buy a breakfast sandwich at the airport and then go through customs, does that count as “importing food into the United States”?

In case you’re wondering, this is not a hypothetical, and I did just get Trusted Traveler “strike” for smuggling breakfast I was *in the process of eating*. I would’ve happily tossed it out if he’d allowed me to, but he claimed it was “too late”—I’d “violated the program’s trust”

I should’ve jammed it into my mouth and then asked “WHAT IF AH’M SMUGGLING IT IN MAH BELLAH, SIR”
