EU Border..Food

[chrisring]

I'm seeing news reports of vehicles being checked entering the EU and checks being made for food and meat and dairy etc being confiscated.

I imagine many of us when visiting Le Mans would be taking some of our own food over?
I would have taken steaks, bacon and Spam etc..
Are we no longer going to be allowed to do this??

So can we take tea bags with us??? Might be a deal breaker

Tea Bags, Spam, Bacon...its all madness

I think the days of the jolly wave through I used to get at Roscoff maybe over!

Previously I would have travelled over on the Saturday ferry arriving Sunday morning.
Then a drive down to Le Mans arriving mid afternoon.

As we know, the French keep most of their shops shut on a Sunday so I would have always taken provisions for a couple of days with me.
....and half a cow in steaks!!

Now, I know French beef is OK but I'm not sure if my Dental insurance will cover me over there now!!
