It is PHX that apparently runs all sorts of ridiculous "pilot programs".
Yeah, I was through PHX recently, and apparently they are one of the airports participating in TSA's new 'snack attacks'. I think next time I'll go through with a bunch of snacks that have been opened slightly and allowed to go really really stale. The confiscating screenes can try to enjoy stale snacks on their breaks.
