Bought at the Peanut Corporation of America going out of business sale. -- nm - Mop Feb 16, 11:24
I'm shocked we still get any free snack at all. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:22 27
- yeah, I say screw it. I usually bring food on the plane anyways (subway, McD, whatever) -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:25 10
  - Next time, just bring a jar of peanut butter. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:27 9
    - I'm sure we've brought PB&J sandwiches for the kids on trips before - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:28

      - does it count as a "gel" or someting? -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:29
      - When I went through, we forgot to take out the pop cans and juice boxes. The TSA screener let me pick like 2 to take through - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:29
      - Really? Wow. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:28 4
        
        You'd have to put it in a little container in your zip lock baggie thing. -- nm - Amy Feb 16, 11:30 1
        
        and it would have to be a jar under 2 ounces, which doesn't exist. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:32
        
        falls in the liquid/gel category, I imagine. -- nm - mafic Feb 16, 11:30
        
        Well, you can't take through any containers like that with stuff in them -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:29
- I usually don't even eat the snacks. (I do like the 3 ounces of soda I get, though.) -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:24 15
  - Wait for the diabetics to protest those away -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 16, 11:26 14
    - The diabetics also have diet soda options on flights. -- nm - kelly Feb 16, 11:47
    - Like kelly said, there's quite a difference. I can't accidentally kill the person next to me because I'm drinking a coke if they're diabetic. - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:30 12
      - ahem. that was me. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:31 4
        
        You're a diabetic? -- (link) - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:34 [Backboard] 3
        
        Thanks. :) -- nm - kelly Feb 16, 11:46
        
        and who said something about stading next to sugar? -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:34 1
        
        I don't know. who? -- nm - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:35
      - I wonder how these people ever attend a baseball game -- nm - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:31 6
        
        who cares? to hell with them. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:31 5
        
        No one is saying that...just that we shouldn't make the US a peanut free zone -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Feb 16, 11:33 3
        
        I'm not saying that at all. a plane is a special case. It's a sealed tin can with recirculating air. -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:34 2
        
        Oh, it starts with the planes. Next, it's buses, then theaters, then restaurants. Next thing you know, *poof*! No peanuts allowed anywhere! - JaxSean Feb 16, 11:37 1
        
        fight for your right to peanuts! -- nm - loosilu Feb 16, 11:39
        
        Pretty much. I know around here there was some stink about people not burning leaves because the stuff in the air could kill some people - oblique, better than nubby Feb 16, 11:33
