Comment:

 Sounds like you're doing it wrong passing serialized data to
 `*_post_meta`, see #12930. If you pass serialized data to the meta
 functions then it will be stored in the DB as a serialized string.

 I believe you may be coming across an issue in which this serialized
 string is then imported and serialized again, this is now fixed in the
 development version of the importer. See #14509 and #10619.
