Anyone for iguana tacos?

LAREDO, Texas (AP) - March 2, 2011

U.S. customs officials say they've seized nearly 60 pounds of what's believed to be iguana meat.

The two suspicious ice chests were found on a bus from Mexico bound for Texas.

Authorities say the iguana meat was hidden in corn dough, tamale-style.

Officials put the value of the whole enchilada at nearly 1,600 bucks.

A female passenger was questioned and will be returned to Mexico.
