Chrissy Teigen’s Gravy-Airport Saga Exposes a Weird TSA Loophole | Eater

"At airport security, the agency defines liquids as “any item that you can pump, squeeze, spread, smear, spray or spill” and enforces a 3.4-ounce limit for such items, producing many counterintuitive outcomes. Solid cheese and chocolate are allowed in any quantity while creamy or melted versions are restricted; fresh eggs are permitted despite being liquid inside their shells; dressings, oils, vinegar and salsa are limited to 3.4 ounces while fully assembled sandwiches face no specific restriction. Pies with custard, mousse or very juicy fillings can be problematic, and the same tomato sauce may be banned in a jar but accepted when mixed into a bowl of spaghetti. Viral demonstrations—such as congealed gravy being deemed a prohibited liquid unless mixed into mashed potatoes—underscore the perceived arbitrariness of the rules, and the agency notes that the final decision rests with the security officers at the checkpoint." - Jenny G. Zhang

By far the worse TSA. Arrived from Dubai which left late causing me to arrive late in Newark Liberty. The want to be FBI pulled out all my belongings from my suitcases as if they knew I had something that I should not have had. They literally unfolded everything. After 30 min and the TSA worker told me she needed to take a phone call, I told her I had to catch a flight in 20 min they told me I should have left sooner from my previous destination. I told them I couldn't because my flight left late and she said then I may have to delay my flight. The next flight home was in 7hrs. I also made a gift purchase that was wrapped up in a box with a bow and tissue and they took the box apart and told me I could take it back to the store I purchased it and ask them to repack it. In addition, you have to go outside and come back into the airport and then go through domestic TSA to catch your domestic flight, as if you were not already in the airport and have went through TSA already. Please save yourself from all the anxiety and disrespect and AVOID this airport at all costs. The TSA workers are the worst by far and I travel all the time. They act like they are FBI workers in addition have no respect for your belongings.

Probably the slowest most disrespectful TSA crew I've ever seen. Took 25 minutes to double check 1 bag of a passenger in front of me. Then decided my shaving cream that has cleared 3 TSA checks in 2 months was to big. Horribly run by local TSA staff. I appreciate the job you have to do, but lets show some consistency and urgency in your service.

Females chit chatting and when I tried to get their attention, they were so pissed. I was trying to get rid of an item that was in my bag that should have been tossed in the trash. Then one lady flung my basket onto the rollers and rolled her eyes as if she couldn’t believe a mistake like that could happen. Clearly she made some mistakes in life to end up where she is. Let’s have some humility TSA, and let’s do our jobs!!!

Couldn't care less!! Waiting in lines for bins. TSA precheck was a joke. They didn't have bins for us to put our stuff in. They the guy had the audacity to say we needed to be there 2 hours earlier. Well kinda hard when we flew in international! Fork that guy. How about you shut the heck up and just get some more bins. Try to be helpful.... what a joke

The rudest Nastiest, people that just live to make your life more difficult as you're going through security. No, other airport in the country have I ever experienced this kind of treatment? And it's every time I come through here.

Premier check-in was a nightmare. It was empty, there was no line at all. But they started rearranging the lanes right in front of us, as we walked. We ended up at the same security agent window we initially were heading to. For no particular reason the guy decided to hold the line for almost 10 minutes, even though conveyor was empty. When they re-opened the lane they started screaming "let's move! let's get going!" - like it was passengers' fault for hold up. They managed to lose my jacket and cellphone right from the conveyor bin. Took me another 10 minutes to retrieve them. You call it premier check-in? What premier check-in?

Slow and poorly run. There where at lease 20 tsa agents and most were standing around doing nothing Our side had 3 lines and 1 metal detector. Need at least 2 hours to get through and that's if there's nothing wrong. The agents had a totally obvious attitude several people in our line miss3d there flight and it wasn't even crowded. Avoid if possible

They made us wait for no apparent reason as the tellers were there, ignoring us. Then they asked me for unnecessary extra documentation when I complained, and take my pic 3 times! They inspected my bag and opened a gift for no apparent reason. And they ruined my boyfriend’s new leather jacket with some white stuff that didn’t come off and no one took responsibility, and claimed they didn’t know what it was. What a waste of time and money!
