[Paddlewise] Food into Canada and the US

Has anyone experienced hassles bringing normal kayaking food (eg: de-hi
meals, oatmeal, scroggin) into either Canada or the US ?

When we come into Vancouver in July and then head up to Alaska, we will
cross the borders a few times and in a few places.

I've looked on the Canadian & US government websites for Food 'import' - but
I've found only info about commercial import or 'Holiday Home' traffic. I've
not found anything on hiking or kayaking trip food.

There must be a few people every year who set out with a backpack full of
carefully packaged food - or does everyone have to sit at the trailhead,
breaking down a bag of local groceries ?

That would be a real shame, as we're getting quite attached to our homemade
de-hi recipes and have got a monster feed down to about 100 gms (3.5 oz)
each.
