I have to confess, however, that I violated the TSA's rules. It clearly states on the sealed bag that I am NOT allowed to open it on the plane and, should I be connecting in the US, I must transfer it to my checked luggage.
The problem is that I bought 5 boxes of chocolates to give to the crew as holiday gifts and I couldn't figure out how to divide them without opening the sealed bag -- so I did. Clearly, I was putting international aviation at great risk by this reckless act.
Great. Now the ne'er-do-wells know that all they have to do is remove international chocolate from a sealed bag and deliver it to a crewmember under the guise of a gift and boooom, just like that, the whole crew suddenly essplodes.....with happiness.
