TSA issues guidelines on traveling with Christmas foods, other holiday items
The Transportation Security Administration released some guidelines to help passengers traveling with Christmas foods and other holiday items make it through checkpoints smoothly.
When it comes to food, solid items can go through a checkpoint. However, items that can be spilled, sprayed, spread, pumped, or poured and are larger than 3.4 ounces need to go in a checked bag.
Food items often need additional security screening so it's a good idea to remove them from a carry-on bag and place them in a bin at the checkpoint.
Check out the TSA's website and click on the 'What Can I Bring?' section for a full list of items and how to pack them.
