Almost all travelers have found themselves dealing with a little white lie about what they’re bringing back when filling out their customs form on the return trip home. We strongly advice our readers to adhere to all local laws and NEVER bring any banned item into a country, as there’s probably a dam good reason not to. Not all “smugglers” are equal, however, and sometimes the risks do outweigh the pay-off. Sure, the average traveler might consider sneaking some butter in from Wales or chilli’s from Peru, and they might not even know about certain restrictions, like Israel’s iPad ban, but every day some people try to get things far stranger through sometimes shady security and customs regulations at airports around the world.
