Don't mind dropping such a dumb question. For all these years you guys have been going in and out from Australia, what food have you guys declared and brought in to Australia safely? =D
*
More than 1 kg of Chinese Medicine, uncooked ikan bilis, salted fish, and some Penang local products. They're packed well. My family brought in almost every time we visited my sister in Australia.

Taken away by custom =/ Azuki bean

You sure? Even made in Malaysia milo? Love Malaysian milo version better.  biggrin.gif
shocking.gif . What you meant Chinese medicine are dry herbs such as dong guai, red dates, American ginseng etc?  Salted fish and ikan bilis they also let? Unbelievable
Phew at least my mom doesn't need to worry. It will be alright as long as we tick declare right? Do you guys have gone through any treatment on your food products by the customs? How about biscuits? I believe they also do contain dairy milk.

Yup. They were commercially packed well and we declared. Herbs, biscuits (w/o eggs), fish and seafood products were allowed, special conditions applied. http://www.daff.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_f...tcanti_take.pdf

Yes, it will be alright as long as you TICK declare.
Food products which are not allowed to bring in Australia, the custom will just take them away, they will not fine you.

Im thinking of bringing some anchovies and fried shallot that are prepared by mom. Is it possible to bring them in?

If your fried shallot is packed commercially with description like this should be alright :

Buy a pack of fried shallow, and declare it. Most processed food (w/o meat, eggs, dairy) will get through. They aren't expensive, so you can have a try, just remember to DECLARE.
