Tsa will not take away food products from your bags… That double check more likely the person made a connection and on the second scan, they could not recognize a substance in the bag, such as frozen ackee, breadfruit, bun n other solids substance. They will search all bags and leave such note in the bag as to let you know they went in your bag. My hubby travels with tools all the time and there’s always a note in his tool box from TSA. Custom agriculture does screening on food interning the USA not TSA.
No Jamaican has any business passing through Miami airport unless they live there. I absolutely hate that airport. In fact I hate travelling to the US in general. Since I tend to travel business class when going and returning from Jamaica, I honestly think when they see the tags on my cases, they don’t bother stop me. Having said that, the mules travelling from Jamaica to England are not as common as they were back in the day where so many of them died when the condoms burst in them during the 10 hour flight. Nothing could induce me to carry drugs. I love my life and my freedom too much.
Mi not traveling back through deh again no sah … I got another connecting flight another time and that was Charlotte n.c easy breezy Dem nuh trouble mi at all.
Hellooooo, Miami International Airport???? Anybody that is travelling wid dem ackee, jerk pork or any other contraband tell dem dont go dung dere…anything hardly pass dem eyes.

Anonymous, prejudice, really? Jamaica is a know drug hub, stop acting as if you don’t know any better. They would be derelict in their duty if they were to function as if they did not know that a lot of drugs are transported from Jamaica to the US.
Yuh better hope and pray that Jamaica does not become a terrorist hub; it is then that you would be really crying about prejudice.
That’s true…..sadly.
Is not Jamaican alone you wa see me going tru Toronto airport to Montego Bay no problem but the young white guy them swipe him hand with cloth
