TSA confiscating grandma's Thanksgiving pies at Cleveland Airport
2006-11-23
Dozens of home made pies have been seized by agents of the Transportation Security Agency at Cleveland Hopkins airport as air travelers attempt to move this contraband through security. The seized pies have been donated to the USO lounge at the airport for consumption by servicemen and women passing through Cleveland.
I picked this off the live broadcast of Channel 8 in Cleveland, so it hasn't been posted at the website. This does seem a bit overzealous on the part of the TSA. On the other hand, the USO says the pies are much appreciated and are not going to waste.

#3  Glenmore nails it. Pie profiling by the tsa turkeys is ok, but the Leon Minetta legacy of harrassing everyone has a life of its own.

#2  If the pies are safe enough for the servicemen to eat, how are they too dangerous to let on the planes?

#1  I don't know about these pies but my Aunt's fruitcake was certainly deadly.
