Rows of honey, preserves, pickles and more. My honey collection has gone from unwieldy to hard to justify. If he wasn't already married, I'd introduce you to my husband. He's on this honey kick that I do not fully comprehend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrid Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 That's okay, my husband would not be thrilled with an introduction either. I recently learned an interest factoid from a friend. Apparently anyone air traveling with honey will be guaranteed to get their luggage opened and checked. Honey has the same density as certain explosives, apparently, and there's no way to check the difference without a direct physical examination. And since very few people carry honey in smaller than 100 ml containers, that means getting their checked luggage opened outside of their presence. I learned this shortly after I had brought two jars of honey (chestnut and heather) from France, through 2 separate flights. Considering that we did not miss anything from our luggage, including some very delicious chocolates and caramels, I think this speaks well to the honesty of TSA agents. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
