[PUP] Provisioning for Mexico and Central America

[Sonaia Maryon-Davis]

The Mexicans will try to take away all poultry and eggs so I would
advise against taking those with you.  They did ours but we had only a
small amount. We took a lot of US beef etc with us because it's so
much better than what you can buy South of San Diego.

It seems to be common practice to fill a freezer full of fresh meat and poultry prior to heading out of the U.S.  My boating experience in the Pacific Northwest has been if you cross from the U.S. to Canada there are restrictions on the quantities of meat and other items (wine...) you can have in your possession.  This is true both ways.
