I would agree had she brought AG products from Europe, but she did not. She had fruit given to her from the airline, which had already passed inspection. The situation could have been resolved by simply tossing the offending apple. Neither side conceded.
I was wondering about that. Did the apple originate in the United States or Europe?
The problem is that customs is not going to take time to verify where the fruit came from. When we went on a cruise to the Bahamas we were told even fruit that we had gotten on board the ship could not be taken into the states. I think the same would apply for airline passengers.
