It shows that they clearly are not thinking about the true risks associated with the ban, and in this case the evidence indicates that an exempted item may have been used to smuggle a portion of the material on board.

I am sorry to say this, but formula and breast milk in bottles should not be exempted, as long as we have this liquid ban.
In the UK, passengers are being made to drink formula and breast milk.

If someone thought that such insanity was US-specific, it should now be clear that security insanity is not geographically-contained.
