Customs Interrogation Tactics, Truth Serum and Smoking Cessation

The officer utilized a new interrogation tactic by asking "What food did you bring?" rather than "Did you bring food?" The traveler inadvertently shared personal information about quitting smoking four months prior, attributing the talkativeness to the medication acting as a "truth serum."
