Plastic Knife Confiscated!

I needed to get to PDX so I took B6's flight.

I knew that I was going to need something to eat, so I brought a chicken gyro near
my house.

I had this wrapped up in a bag with a plastic fork, plastic knife, and a fruit bowl.

As my carry-on was going through security they stopped the belt. They looked at my bag through the screen, and asked me to step aside. They took my bag to a table, and started going through it.

They told me that I was not allowed to bring a plastic knife through security!!!

I told them that I was, because I could get one on the airside of the terminal at a food place, or if I was flying Delta I could get one on the plane!!!!

Mr. I have the Power wouldn't give up, and took my freaking plastic knife away!!

I asked for a supervisor, and he told me that I would have to wait. I waited for five minutes, but no one came. I decided just to leave b/c my flight was already boarding.

What the f*** is wrong with security?
