Yes, I just used the kiosk yesterday, and while it did not say "food," it specifically DID ask about "dairy products." But when I declared the cheddar cheese I was carrying, the officer said "don't bother declaring it next time; it's not required."

So......how does that jive with the stern lecture about "DECLARE ALL ITEMS THAT YOU CAN CONSUME AS FOOD UNDER PENALTY OF REVOCATION OF GE PRIVILEGES" that I got at my interview?
