At any rate, we only ate out a few times, but seems like we spent ~$100 per couple for dinner. We were driking too, so that adds to the cost.

did you have any problems taking fresh meat in a cooler down? going through customs/immigration? (some countries don't allow fresh produce or meat being brought in).
Did you freeze it beforehand to keep it cold longer or what?
For comparison, the meat in Aruba taste different than the US meat, but I didn't think it was bad. It was a very rich taste. most of it was Argentine beef. I really liked the argentine steakhouses they had their (in aruba). |
As of last July, C&I did not have a problem with the meat, or any other food being brought in (or out)... We actually brought some home with no issues. However, make sure its still in its
original packaging... That's the key. And, yes, we froze it before packing into the cooler... Its cold at 30k feet. Almost all the items were still frozen when we unpacked it.
