My friend had a massive fine for bringing some seeds or nuts into Australia and when at the border they asked if she had any, she said no. They are very strict and even if you have any, as long as you admit they won't fine you, they will seize but no fine or record on your name. Its little bit different as she lied (not sure why though) but from that time every time I travel anywhere outside USA, I always check if they have any "weird" restrictions.
Its good you got some good luck!
