The only time I've ever been hassled by Customs (complete search of bag was all) was when I came directly from AMS. I just assumed they were looking for drugs.
Why they have continued to hassle you after that I do not know....</font>
I was pulled aside at Memphis last year when I flew in from AMS. The guy at the customs was more interested in knowing why I requested/pre booked a vegetarian meal. After a long explanation of my veggie and tree hugging principles, he let me go without even inspecting my bags. Since then I been to US several times but have never been stopped at Customs.
