Traveling with Food for Gifts over the Holidays?
I was talking to someone from TSA (Transportation Security Administration) about what tips they could give for traveling during the holidays. They said that the biggest challenge is when people bring their favorite foods from home that they want to bring to holiday dinners, or items from their destination that they want to bring back home. Not sure about what you can and can't bring through the checkpoint? Here's a list of liquid, aerosol and gel items that you should put in your checked bag, ship ahead, or leave at home.
- Cranberry sauce
- Cologne
- Creamy dips
- Gift baskets with food items like salsa, jams and salad dressings
