If it looks too tasty, TSA will confiscate it -- they make up
regulations on the spot to harass travelers.

How about a can of sardines and some bread or crackers? They'll
probably let you on with its sharp-edged metal lid, but take away your
plastic spork.

(Being harassed is supposed to make us feel safe) HTH :-)
