Well isn't that stupid. They promissed that homemade goods would never be affected, & if the ban was to happen, it would be on Comercial goods... Arg I wish they would stop jerking around. It was really hard telling customers that food was a no one day & that its ok the next.. now its a no again

You do know why this is happing right?? They fear someone in Canada will send anthrax in food & kill americans I remember have a huge argument with 10 others (on my side) to canada post on how retarded this is... *kicks the usa customs guys again*
