You might want to read that link again. It is applicable only to the US Mainland.

"All baggage bound from Hawaii to the U. S. Mainland is subject to pre-flight inspection by the U. S. Department of Agriculture."
I am aware of that and assumed that’s what the OP was asking about. S/he talked about it being different from ‘most domestic travel’ so I assumed that was what s/he meant.

I know that food is problematic for international travel, and my last trip seemed to indicate Hawaii is slightly different than most domestic travel. I intend to fill up a rollerbag with food I'm getting from Hawaii on my way back home. Any issues with TSA or other sticklers I should be aware of? All food will be solid.
