First - if I was asked if I had anything to declare by a customs agent and said, "I must declare, I have a donkey penis." I would likely be slapped and labelled a creep ( regardless of whether or not the statement was true in the first place - literally or figuratively).
Second - can one of our resident Kiwis comment on whether this is common, and if they have ever eaten donkey dick? 
Last - wasn't sure if this should be here or in the "Gourmet Guerrilla" section.
