What strikes out?
If you want to send stuff to Germany by mail there is a list of things you can't send:
- Absinthe.
- Arms and weapons.
- Articles bearing political or religious notations on the address side.
- Human remains.
- Live plants and animals.
- Melatonin.
- Perishable infectious biological substances.
- Playing cards, except in complete decks properly wrapped.
- Pulverized coca beans.
- Radioactive materials.
Where most of these items make some sence in being prohibited, what's up with the playing cards and the cocoa? It's the first time I heard those are dangerous... and as luck would have it, we do want to send playing card, but they are not very precise in what properly wrapped means ;)

Measuring instruments marked in units not complying with French law.

Saccharine in tablets or packets.
That's sweet! about 300 times sweeter actually ;)
