Neither US or EU directives related to the bans are codified in legislation ..... rather they are part of regulations which do a very poor job of definition.

An orange or watermelon -- for example -- would be allowed even though it is an organic container quite full of liquids.

Anyone here ever see someone flush some sodium down the toilet?
