I live in Japan and would like to bring back food from Japan.
I think there are restrictions on meat
so I would like to bring back sashimi or something that I can eat right away.
I have never done this before, so I would appreciate it if someone with experience could tell me how they did it.
Do you freeze it or
is it hand luggage, etc.? I will bring frozen, but
regular too, etc.
I have had my luggage confiscated many times
and I would like to avoid confiscation.
Thank you very much.

Halo,

I am not registered for anything in particular regarding entering the US.
So I'm not sure if it's so zaru ? and I wonder if they do unannounced customs checks.
I didn't want to get into trouble with customs, so I made sure to check the meat extract of what I was bringing back, and I also made sure to follow the 1 liter limit for the amount of alcohol I was bringing back.

By the way, the following article says that Honolulu Airport has introduced a Simplified Arrival system, but it doesn't mention anything about customs.
https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/local-media-release/cbp-introduces-simplified-arrival-hnl-honolulu-hawaii

When I was there, I was really It was a fine, but it was probably not intentional, so I let it go this time.
But I guess the flag went up.
After a few years of being called out, I think the flag was lifted because I don't think they stopped saying it a little before Corona. Meat extract is really tricky because it's in so many different products.
Again, I have seen it in Japanese supermarkets.

I was curious so I looked into it.

First, the Customs website

It is convenient if you can bring back even chicken bones.
I'm just not sure how well the customs officials know the rules.

Apparently my post got lost, so I'm reposting it, but
I found the following site.

Customs says chicken is prohibited or restricted.

Reading the site linked to the customs page, I also understand that commercial products are ok.
I just wonder how well the customs officials at the airport understand this ~ and I'm not sure how much I should be worried.
