post #4, it would seem these were incorrectly removed.
On a side note, I also like the paragraph about lighters being prohibited in carry-on luggage. It would be something one could test at ACV considering one lighter is now allowed. I'm sure the TSOs at ACV, however, will insist that the website is out of date, even if they provide the URL as they did on that sheet.
As
jkhuggins has stated, it all depends upon what exactly you mean by "foot warmers". Can you provide a link to something so that we can better understand what you mean?
Without that, I would have to guess what has already been stated here: they violated FAA regulations as hazardous material.
