I found this cool photo of edibles confiscated from JFK (click to enlarge) on Wired via Gridskipper. The photo is from Taryn Simon's book An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar. Caption:
The foodstuffs in this image were seized over a 48-hour period from passengers arriving from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens, New York, from abroad. Among the pictured items are African yams, uncooked meats, fresh eggs, okra and a South Asian lime infected with a citrus canker.
"This room is one of my favorite shots. I spent hours arranging the contraband to get it to look like a still life," Simon said.
On that note, I'm going to go clean the fridge.
