It's moisture barrier bag not Mexican bean burrito.

Probably found it cause burritos don't weigh a pond

I don't do meth, but $3.30/gram seems like a really low estimate, even for pounds. (2 pounds = 907 grams: $3,000/907g = $3.30/g Unless I'm being dumb?)

A low-ball estimate is unusual, it always seemed like LE just made up outrageous drug values.

LE say that the burritos contained over a pound of meth, street value of $3000 USD. Is that a lie?

Because I know for sure, in AU, a pound of meth would make something probably close to a 100k if it was fire meth. 454 x 200 = $90800

Watched the video in that article. Apparently, the coast guard's intercepted 5 cocaine-smuggling SUBMARINES in less than a year lmao.

NOGALES [a tiny border crossing], Ariz., May 25 (UPI) -- U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers said an Arizona woman was arrested with two packages of meth that had been disguised as burritos.

The agency said officers at the Morley Pedestrian Gate referred the 23-year-old Nogales woman for further inspection May 20 when attempting to return to the United States.

A narcotics-detecting canine alerted officers to the presence of drugs and a search determined the woman was carrying more than a pound of methamphetamine in two packages that had been wrapped in tortilla shells to make them look like burritos.

Officers estimated the meth had a street value of more than $3,000.

The case was turned over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations.

The stealth here just looks too stereotypical. Its like if Santa was a drug dealer and stashed his supplies in his big red bag. Its just too obvious.
