Very impressive for those not near the coast. You can have three or four chicken lobsters packed in seaweed, etc., in secure and odor-free packaging, carry it on. If you offer to do the cooking, even more impressive.
At this point, if I don't get my mom a 1/2 lbs Burdick box for major holidays (xmas/moms day/bday), I can count on there being a certain...reserve...the next time we talk. Not that she doesn't love her eldest son...she just likes him a lot more when he's gotten her hand-made gourmet chocolates.
Btw, everyone loves the little mousies and penguins - but you get twice as many chocolates if you get a so-called 'everday assortment' box (and those have a couple meeses in them as well). Frugality and luxury...bestill my yankee heart!
We sent a bag of Boston Baked Beans candy to my southern grandma one year; she called and asked how long to soak them. We also like to mail cans of Peach Blossoms.

Hook's does a good job too.
Hook Seafood on Atlantic Ave does a great job sending lobsters as well.

Is fluff a liquid?
If one can bring fluff..
One should bring along a bucket of Teddie brand peanut butter.
