But there's no limit to what I can bring in according to the Feds, only what I would need to pay a duty on. It seems to me that if TX law states that someone can import up to 24 12-oz containers legally, a customs officer wouldn't consider any amount up to that to be intended for commercial resale and wouldn't confiscate it. Paying the federal fees and TX state fees isn't the problem; I just want to be able to legally get it into the country without someone deciding for themselves that I intend to re-sell it, which is not the case.
