zone bars
I'm on a trip and bought some zone bars I probably can't finish:

Why didn't you write the subject as - Candy/nutrition bars - OK for carry-on? Why write your question as a stupid-ass "zone bars" ? What the hell is a "zone bar"? Next time, make better use of the subject line so that the reader has a good idea what question or subject is being discussed. To answer your question, even in these hyper-stupid days of insane carry-on restrictions and screening, solid and semi-solid food items are almost always allowed. I will usually bring one of those pre-packaged nut mixes through security (cashews, etc). I will also bring 3 or 4 of those small plastic liquor bottles through security. I keep empty bottles at home, and fill them with what-ever I feel like (whisky, vodka, rum, etc) and put them in the toiletry bag that normally contains shampoo, deodorant, etc. I have no problem getting that quantity through the x-ray security screen. And then (naturally) consuming them on the plane - with some coke or gingerale and my cashews. |

The security agent said that Camembert is a "viscous fluid" and has to be put in checked luggage. I asked him if Gouda would have been ok but he didn't seem to find the question funny. So the message to the OP is, crack open a Zone Bar and see if there's any viscous fluids inside. I guess Mars Bars are no-go. |
