Guy Fills Cannoli At Airport Security, Becomes Instant Icon

No matter how carefully they've packed their bags, many avid travellers have fallen foul of stringent airport security at least once. The rules that surround carry-on luggage might be there for a very good reason, but it can be hard to see the point when some random dude takes pleasure in relieving you of a bottle of expensive shampoo.

When it comes to food and drink, the protocol can seem even more ridiculous — something which has been outlined by a recent video filmed at Boston Logan International Airport. In it, a man can be seen piping filling into empty cannoli shells at the airport security desk. Allegedly, this was because the TSA would allow filled cannoli on a flight, but not the empty shells and separate bagged filling.

You can bring filled cannolis through TSA, but not cannoli shells plus filling in a bag #securitytheater

Also ofc this happened in Boston lmao https://t.co/g8me27JWHq

While the footage makes for amusing viewing, it also had many people scratching their heads over why this was a necessity. At least that guy could skip the horrors of airplane food in favor of a freshly prepared snack.
