I am putting this post first in the Canada forum for help and then
if no one can answer part two I will ask that particular question in
the travel security thread.
My all time favorite pickles are madeby the Strub family. I used
to buy them by the box from the local distributor in Los Angeles.
On the occasion of my upcoming YVR visit I am wondering if Strub's
pickles are available at local Vancouver/Richmond supermarkets or
even Costco? Part two then is the question if TSA or whatever the
local screening auhority is in Canada look at a pickle jar as prohibited
liquids or will let them pass for my return flight to Tokyo? I would
prefer to handcarry a glass jar instead of packing it in check-in
luggage, even if I try to cushion it with all sorts of things.
