Bringing Peppers/Seeds back from a cruise

Nothing. But typically you go through customs where you're supposed to declare such things. Awful easy to hide though ...

I like the mailing idea as a backup, if there was time.

Yeah I am a bad person. I answer no to that stuff.
 
Not as romantic as hiding them in a body cavity, but I am going with frdturner and saying just mail them to yourself.  Never been on a cruise, but traveled lots of European countries while living in Germany.  I was all the time sending things back to my folk.  I think as long as they are declared a gift, nobody really cares unless they smell like something else.

They are just pepper seeds not a bunch of smuggled antiquities. Put em in your bag and forget about it. Hell declare them if you feel like it. It's not illegal to bring them home https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/600/~/importing-plants-and-plant-productsYou can even cross check on their website Peppers from Jamaica are approved, I didn't check the others. But it's a safe bet.

Funny thread. My parents are coming home this weekend from Guatemala with some nice seeds. They think they can bring whole pods through because they drove across from Canada with 50 lbs of carrots & brought corn seeds back from Guatemala last time. I disagree, but my dad doesn't listen. I MAY have some nice Chiltepe, Petenero, Caballo (rocoto), etc seeds on Sunday or I may be bailing my parents out of jail. :)

So, did they make it?  ;)
 
Yeah were not trying to smuggle heroin, diamonds or rare gold coins, I would check with customs coming and going before trying something that might lead to a full body and cavity search. If you get desperate you could shove the seeds up your nose and just tell them you're having an allergy attack from something you ate. Or after having stuck said seeds up your nose you could tell them you are having some kind of fit. I highly doubt that should you get checked in costoms and they see a couple little plastic seed bags taped to the inside of a greetings card,  that they would take them unless they was taped to a pound of Hash.

Like b I said in my 1st reply, awful difficult to declare something that fell down your shirt and ended up in your sock.
