Once left Philadelphia with really good Hoagie on a foodless flight. TSA impounded it, claiming it was too big. I am convinced he was just hungry
Ha!

My bag was pulled for a check. I had four large sandwiches from a very good local place. I was taking them to out-of-state fans.

The TSO opened my bag, patted around, gripped one of the triple-bagged sandwiches with both hands and said 'fish, right? People come through here all the time with fish.'

???

Fish? Hoagie-sized fish in their carry-ons?

Fortunately, I had time, so if he had tried to confiscate the sandwiches, I would have asked him to escort me back airside, where I would have thoroughly destroyed and disposed of the sandwiches before going through security.
