TSA Approves Pies In The Sky

Don't fear, dessert fans: The TSA wants you to know that you can indeed take holiday pies through security checkpoints, even if they weigh more than three ounces. Apparently cherry filling isn't a liquid or a gel!

Agency spokesman "Blogger Bob" had the official update today:

Just send it through the X-ray and you’ll be one step closer to enjoying your delicious pie. We do suggest you take it as a carry on so it doesn’t get squashed in your checked luggage.

Last year, airport screeners said your dessert "might be subject to additional screening," but we've seen no such warning so far this season. Hurray for pie!
