Oh, my bologna has a second name it’s G-O-M-E-Z...
Etc. Etc. Etc.

Why would you make such an absurd claim?

I read this wrong: "Mexico is the second biggest export market for U.S. pork."

Fortunately, muslims in general and arabs in particular are so stupid they’re completely unable to master the basic science required to deliberately import the diseases. They’ll have to luck their way into it.

Which they will, if the videos of the Imams giving
lectures about “the fly in Islam” on Youtube are any
indication.

385 pounds, common sense tells you they were going to sell it.

Behind the seat in a pickup is likely not an approved method of transport for a meat product.

I am sure it was processed under sanitary conditions and inspected...right?

It might've been stuffed with drugs.

whenever we go to visit relatives in New Mexico, we always come home with this certain bologna that we can’t find her in California... it has this red casing.

You are probably talking about Coronado Bologna. I grew up eating it too, but my mom bought the ring bologna that was much smaller in diameter and you had to slice it yourself. She'd cut it into thick slices and fry it until it was crisp. It was great in sandwiches or when we were particularly broke it was our meat for supper, usually put into fried potatoes to eat in a homemade flour tortilla. Heaven!

If the bologna was stuffed with drugs they would have gladly said so. Truth is lunch meat and especially homemade cheese is smuggled across the border in large quantities regularly and sold. Every now and then there are cases of food poisoning and listeria traced back to it. Some of the homemade cheeses are made in home bathtubs like gin back in the day. Some of the Mexican cheese is really good but you have to be really careful and know where it came from. Bologna is also caught often, but not usually in large amounts like this bust.
