It'd stay cold!</p> <p>Dried oatmeal packets, then you just ask for hot water (which you can get while they're serving drinks, too!) </p> <p>I would totally take cold sausage, though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013411 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:49:11 +0000 Freckles 1013411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pouches were also a must for me because they don't let you breastfeed during takeoff. She just happily sucks on them during takeoff and never has issues with ears popping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013398 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:47:27 +0000 Freckles 1013398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: They let you if it's for the baby. I can even keep water in her sippy cup because it's for the baby.</p> <p>I've taken blueberries, pancakes, yogurt pouches. Also, i'll usually buy oatmeal from starbucks or some other breakfast place and feed that to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013391 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:46:13 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1013391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Leialou: @locavore_mama: Ok thanks - I don't know why I thought you couldn't bring food through. That makes me feel so much better about flying w/ DD (by myself!) in a few days. eek! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013370 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:41:16 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1013370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I've taken food through security.

I'm all about neat eating. </p> <p>I would totally bring pouches as well... probably applesauce. And toddler mum-mums are great because they're single serving, fun, and relatively neat to eat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013331 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:29:05 +0000 mediagirl 1013331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: yeah, definitely not even trying to bring liquids on. I heard I can get whole milk from Starbucks so, I'll just buy a cup and put it in her sippy after we're through security. It was such a PITA when I carried breastmilk on last time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013327 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:28:22 +0000 looch 1013327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: they're stricter When you are coming into the US, not so much the other way around.</p> <p>I think it is more the liquids issue, rather than food, per se. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013321 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:27:13 +0000 mediagirl 1013321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: nope, flying to Cleveland.

They're 4oz, so they're just small enough to go through. </p> <p>Since when can't you take food? I've flown with food every time I travel. I'm a snack-a-holic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013315 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:25:50 +0000 Mrsbells 1013315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Are you travelling outside the country? If its an international flight I believe they are stricter </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013299 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:22:19 +0000 regberadaisy 1013299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/traveling-food-or-gifts" rel="nofollow">http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/traveling-food-or-gifts</a></p> <p>My brother works at Newark and goes through security every day.

I prefer to be cautious and leave less room for debate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013279 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:18:21 +0000 regberadaisy 1013279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: I think that is no longer the case?

We can take our own food on the airplane?

I also put yogurt in the pouches too </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013268 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:15:27 +0000 regberadaisy 1013268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about waffles? You can premake them the night before then heat up in the oven while you're getting ready. Cut into cubes and put them into a Ziploc bag? </p> <p>Cantaloupes cut up are a great snack too and less messy than blueberries? Grapes?</p> <p>Fiddlesticks. LO l-o-v-es fiddlesticks!</p> <p>Do you have pouches at home? I always have 1 or 2 in the diaper bag. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/airplane-food-what-to-take#post-1013257 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 12:13:37 +0000 mediagirl 1013257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're going to be in an airport from 6:15am until 11am on Friday. That covers breakfast and snack times. I want to take what M will be eating so I don't have to worry about finding something toddler friendly (not fried) in the airport. She is 14 months old.</p> <p>I'm thinking of taking goldfish and blueberries for snack. While blueberries are messy, she LOVES them. I may take a whole pint and hope she eats them the whole time we're on the plane. :) </p> <p>Breakfast is normally eggs and sausage and fruit or cheerios, yogurt and fruit but I don't want to worry about keeping things cool. </p> <p>What are some good, easy foods for breakfast and snack when you're on the go? </p>
