East European restictions: taking food and wine over country lines

Hi,
We are traveling round trip by car lease for 36 days from Munich thru: Austria, Northern Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro.
We picnic for BF and LCH and carry food and wine in our car. Will this be a problem crossing the border in or out of any of these countries? Thanks in advance for you help and experience!

Another nice thing Debbie is that some of those countries are considered not fully developed (economy wise), and some of the rules will let you bring back extra bottles of wine to the states, without paying extra taxes (ups the limit), which can be nice. Have to research it for each country though.

Have fun. Slovenia, Austria, and Northern Italy are great to drive around in! =)
