I eat different food when I travel. It's part of the experience.

I agree with elcala

Anything like that should be in it's original container & must have ingredients listed.

But as posted many places down here to buy protien powder & ground flax seed although the one ground flax we found was in a pet store ???

Depending on how long you are staying, I agree with Viajero. If it's just for a week I would not bother..........I also have been taken ground flax seeds in smoothies for over 2 years and wanted to take some in my travels but decided it was just too complicated.

I would not worry at all about putting what you need in a baggie and packing it in your checked bag. They won't bat an eye!

Put it in a baggie- no worries. They can tell protein powder from drugs.

Also flax seed is all over here- Linaza. Often sold by the oatmeal at grocery stores. But look into Chia- way better than flax seed, it does not need to be in the dark, never gets rancid or taste fishy. Has more Omegas, protein and health properties. Chia is an ancient seed grown here- I love it!

I can assure you if you hit that button & it comes up red, they will search your bag & you will have to prove what everything in little baggies is.

You will be locked in a room until everything has been verified, not a matter of " oh they will just confiscate it & i am on my way! "

If the light is green then no problem,

i picked up at the airport yesterday & there was a guy complaining it took him 2 hours to get through customs, he was wearing a t shirt with a massive leaf front & back

I would take IanP55's advice you never know ..

I'm also a Chia Seed fan, mix it into my oats every morning.
