I declared my food and at the exit, I tried to tell the agent what I had but as soon as I mentioned "I've got some chocolate" he stopped me and sent me to Ag. inspection. That took all of 60 secnds.
Same for ewr on Monday night

Zero lines at customs/immigration, GE didn't really save any time. In fact, the separate customs GE line was unmanned, I just went thru the normal customs line with zero waiting

Kiosks had my flight info, asked for food (I declared it, got sent for agriculture x-ray which took like 30s)

No issues
