# when did you try to send it?
I don't think irn bru is illegal, but it's just that customs will turn back any mailed prepackaged foods these days.

# no, prior to the paranoid bureaucracy
FDA legislation. irn bru is flavoured with some pretty weird shit. (ammonium ferric citrate III, fact fans)

there's a US friendly version available, but it tastes diffrent in a very disconcerting way.
