No - no- it is a big no-no. My wife has been stopped twice now and reprimanded - 1st time was for an apple (it contains seeds) even though they (the airline) gave it her on the plane. She did not want to eat it on the plane but did not want to waste it either. The 2nd time was a loaf of bread. They really DO NOT like any food stuff of this nature or other brought into the US. They made aa note too.The Customs guy said - mm- last time you bought an apple in. So it looks like they document it too.
