Let’s Cut To The Cheese
I went to Hawaii with my family and for some reason, my mom wanted to bring a block of cheese home with her. Because there are no weight or volume limits for cheese in carry on, she brought it in her purse.
While we were going through security, the TSA agent pulled her aside and said that there was something that “resembled a block of an explosive chemical” in her carry on and that additional agents were on their way to inspect it. Long story short, it was the cheese. They let her keep it after thoroughly examining her bag for about half an hour.
