SAN DIEGO (Border Report) — U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Otay Mesa Cargo facility discovered more than $10 million worth of methamphetamine and cocaine hidden in a shipment of jalapeño paste Wednesday morning.
According to CBP, officers encountered a 28-year-old male driving a commercial tractor-trailer claiming he was hauling barrels filled with jalapeño paste.
The driver, who had a valid border crossing, was referred to secondary inspection along with his rig and contents in the trailer.
A CBP K-9 unit screened the shipment and reportedly alerted officers.

Why bother with jalapeño paste when you can just carry it across the border in your backpack?

That’s what they call a value added product.

They shouldn't have shipped it in a truck. They should've made it a part of the truck.
