    I had a block of cheese one time, they went crazy about it. X-rayed it a bunch. They really didn’t like that cheese.

      That was probably because of the density of the cheese. I had the same thing happen to me with a bag of gnocchi once. They really thought it was something illicit because they had a big armed security guy on either side of me while they had me open it, and they looked really disappointed to find out what it really was.

      I got stopped with a Panettone once. Thankfully this was in EWR so the Italian-American gate agent understood why I’d be smuggling one to the west coast.

        It was a 5lb block of cheddar from UW Provisions, in Madison Wisconsin. Which, in their defense, is a very large block of cheese.
