I warned Mum about taking her own tea.
Even in this country, she will generally have a sandwich bag with a couple of teabags in it. The lady is fussy. When I raised the issue she wasn't as dismissive as I expected. I mean after all they are teabags from a known seller, not some loose bark from the garden. But I think she respected my Border Control watching credentials. And in fact it turned out that boxed, sealed, Twinings or not, they would have been confiscated. I can only assume that the vast majority of Australian weed is homegrown.

What I find odd is that items like packaged tea, which when boxed and shipped in 40 foot containers, gets passed through with minimal inspection, would be confiscated when a single easily inspected unit in a person's possession.
