On January 30th, U.S. Customs and Border protection officers found nearly two tons of weed disguised as limes.
The pot limes were found by officers in Pharr, Texas, the truck carrying them was crossing the Pharr-Reynosa International bridge along the Texas-Mexico border.
Port Director Efrain Solis Jr. said:
"This is an outstanding interception of narcotics. Our CBP officers continue to excel in their knowledge of smuggling techniques, which allows them to intercept these kinds of attempts to introduce narcotics into our country."
The weed is valued at $789, 467, and the Department of Homeland Security is investigating the case.
This isn't the first time drugs have been found camouflaged as food. Last year agents found 2,493 pounds of pot stuffed into fake carrots mixed with real carrots at the same border crossing in Pharr.
Pharr out, man...
