Durian held by customs in California?

Date: June 07, 2009 11:08PM For the last month, the Asian market near me has had no durian. They say it's being held, and that no one has durian. I can't figure out how to extact any more details about it from them. Do you know what's up?
This is in SF bay area. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/07/2009 11:08PM by liponeer. Re: Durian held by customs in California?

Date: June 08, 2009 03:50PM there could have been problems with the importer (not having corrct paperwork or whatever)
im guessing there are a handful of major importers that re-distribute throughout the USA so 1 importer having problems could kibosh many smaller distributors and stores etc. ...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
