Say Cheese! π§ Cocaine Goes Dairy π at Presidio Port
TL;DR: Officers get more than a cheesy surprise at Presidio Port of Entry. Dairy delicacies? Nope, they found cocaine camouflaged in wheels of cheese! π§βπ
When you think cheese, you probably imagine pizzas π or mac n’ cheese π. But at the Presidio Port of Entry, customs officers discovered that some cheese wheels were wheeling in more than dairy!
Officers made a not-so-delicious discovery: these wheels weren’t just filled with creamy goodness. Instead, concealed within were bundles of cocaine. Yup, that’s right. Someone thought, βHey, why not mix a bit of party π with parmesan?β π€
Now, we gotta pause here for a sec. If you were smuggling something (not that Turnt Up News is suggesting you should!), would cheese be your go-to? Were they thinking nobody would get suspicious of excessively heavy cheese? Or maybe they believed in the phrase, βsay cheese and smile,β a little too literally? π
This cheesy operation π§π΅οΈββοΈ begs us to consider how inventive and, let’s admit, a bit hilarious, some smugglers can get. Imagine the meeting where this was pitched. “Alright folks, our next smuggling plan: we hide the goods inside…wait for it…wheels of cheese!β Cue dramatic music πΆ.
But hey, we’ve heard of pineapple pizzas, so why not cocaine cheeses? In all seriousness, it shows the lengths some will go to in hopes of crossing the border unnoticed.
Now, not to be all goody-two-shoes here, but drugs are no joke. They can have severe consequences for the individuals involved, the communities they reach, and let’s not forget those unsuspecting cheese lovers who might’ve had a shocking surprise during their next cheese tasting. π€―
