No, they wouldn't throw them away WITHOUT your permission ... only WITH your permission!

You would also have the option of taking the items back to your car, mailing them to yourself, or giving them to a non-traveling friend who had accompanied you to the airport. But items exceeding the 3-1-1 rule, either in size or quantity, are prohibited and have been for awhile (hence you probably won't be granted much mercy by screeners if you fail to follow the rules).

Note, 3-1-1 does NOT apply to medicines, or milk, formula or juice in appropriate quantities if you are traveling with an infant, so you could carry on these items in addition to your Kippie bag, although doing so may result in a bag check.

I would recommend that you simply pack all toiletries not needed during the flight in your checked baggage.
