THANKSGIVING FOODS YOU CAN TAKE ON A PLANE

People, for some reason, feel the need to take Thanksgiving food with them on an airplane. Here, according to the TSA, are the foods you can and can’t take on your flight:
Yes:
– A turkey, but only if it’s packed inside your checked bags. (* And it better be dead, or else wearing a “service animal” vest.)
– A frozen pint container full of turkey stock or frozen jug of apple cider can be packed in carry-on bags.
– Pies and cakes
– Mac and cheese
– Green bean casserole
– Fresh vegetables must be packed in carry-on bags
– Chocolates and spices
– Baking dishes and nonstick skillets of any size can be carried on planes
* Green bean casserole is allowed? I thought the TSA was supposed to PROTECT the public?
* Are you telling me…. turkeys can fly?

No:
– Canned cranberry sauce.
– Canned gravy
– Canned candied yams
– Canned fruit cocktail
* So you’ll have to transfer all those to plastic bags.
– Homemade jams and preserves
– Cast-iron skillets are not allowed in the cabin – no tools over 7 inches are allowed. They must be packed in checked luggage
– No rolling pins over 7 inches
* My grandma makes a lime Jell-o mold that’s as deadly as any cast iron skillet.
* By all means, bring all your Thanksgiving food on the plane. Your fellow passengers – and particularly your seatmates – will smile and admire you.
* The fact that all these items are on the list means that, at some point, somebody has tried to bring all this stuff on a plane.
