HI List I would have thought a decent scanner would have been able to sort out the ingredients. Mind you, if it was prune jam, it might have caused a problem.

He was most put out he said he spent hours over the stove making that bomb. Thinks someone enjoyed it for lunch.

This same thing happened to my neighbor recently. She was flying home from San Francisco (a 2 hour flight all within the U.S.) and had a container of hummus confiscated at the security gate. They told her that if it had been 3 oz. or less they would have allowed it!! mary lou

These things are OK in your big bag in the hold - jsut not allowed in hand luggage now.
