I may think that Caramilk chocolate bars will sell well in my local US market- I obtain permission form Cadbury in the UK to sell their Caramilk bars in the US market. Generally, with this permission, they are still a grey market good, as they were intended for distribution in the UK market by Cadbury. If Cadbury likes the idea and makes an altered version of the Caramilk bar intended for distribution in my market, then gives me those to distribute, the goods would then not likely be a grey market good.
So what/how much would the product need to change before it would be considered a US product? Is the assignment of a UPC for use in the US enough to justify calling it a US product?
