That's a good idea if a woman doesn't want to drink it herself. I had a
client who had pumped extra for a meeting at the end of her flight. She was
embarrassed by having to drink from each bottle while people stared at her.
I believe that security would have accepted her feeding it to her baby...if
baby was awake and felt co-operative at that moment.

Perhaps after a while we won't take personally the security screening.

In the Ft. Lauderdale airport they were training new security personnel
and, even though I cleared the walk-through screening, they chose me at
random to give a more thorough screening. I had purposefully put my
homeopathic remedies and essential oils (including my buddy, Rescue Remedy)
in my pockets. I had to empty it all into their basket. I cooperated and
away went my remedies to be perhaps neutralized by the machine.

Next time I will get a doctor to write a letter. I had put all of these
things into my checked baggage previously, but it is being x-rayed now too.
What's a fringy health nut to do?

Hmm, I wonder if they would have let me just taste all of it. The essential
oils would have been a challenge but I could have used a dose of RR.
