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?

Cantaloupes cut up are a great snack too and less messy than blueberries? Grapes?

Fiddlesticks. LO l-o-v-es fiddlesticks!

Do you have pouches at home? I always have 1 or 2 in the diaper bag.

Dry cereal, purée pouches and apple slices!

@BabyBoecksMom: I think that is no longer the case? Or anyway with kids they always make an exception I think.

Cereal, freeze dried fruit, raisins, grapes, pouches, graham crackers, granola bars

My brother works at Newark and goes through security every day. Last I heard food is now OK to bring through? But I've yet to travel with kids!

@Mrsbells: they're stricter When you are coming into the US, not so much the other way around.

I think it is more the liquids issue, rather than food, per se.

@locavore_mama: I totally thought of waffles as well! neat to eat. I'm all about neat eating.

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.

@locavore_mama: haha... after having done it ONCE.

@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!

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.
