Cleared for Takeoff: Rhode Island Bakery Creates TSA ‘Compliant Cupcake’

The incident inspired Kelly Colgan, owner of Silver Spoon Bakery in Providence, R.I., to create a travel-friendly treat: the TSA Compliant Cupcake.

makes the TSA ( and the NZ AvSec ) sound more and more like they are inflicted with the "Uncle Dad" and "Aunt Mom" inbred syndrome from Hicksville !

I saw on a recent trip to LAS, a TSA agent made a woman throw away a candy bar she was eating, while waiting in line .. it did not matter to the arrogant bafoon .. that she is diabetic and NEEDED the sugar !

This is just funny as all get out, especially the Nixonian quote. They should have a kiosk in the airport just before one gets to the Checkpoint. This proves the American Spirit is alive and well!

I love when people make fun of ANY government agency AND make money off of it! I hope the cupcakes are successful and make a nice profit for the owners.
