I love the croissants in Montreal. Do you think there would be a problem in bringing some back to the US? I wonder if Customs would give me a hard time? Any thoughts?

Should be no problem at all. However, if it is a problem, that would be noteworthy, so let us know (sort of like - dog bites man... not news; man bites dog... big news )

Were I a U.S. Customs agent and discovered that you were hauling Montreal-made croissants across the border, it's very likely that I would make a sneering comment that Montreal-made bagels are far more worthy of export. Especially from the Fairmont Bagel Bakery.

However, it turns out that I am not now, have never been, and am extremely unlikely to ever become a U.S. Customs agent.
