Can airport security detect thc in edibles?

When bags go on that conveyor belt, does it detect thc in edibles like brownies?

Nope.

The x-ray doesn't, but the drug dogs do.

The dogs in the back will detect it.

Unless the edibles look like a weapon they won't. However, if something else in the bag alerts the screeners and they hand search the bag they may notice it.

If they are using drug dogs while you are in the airport you may also be discovered that way.

Only if the drug dogs happen by at the wrong time

The machines won't detect it. But if there are drug dogs in the area, they certainly will.

The x-rays is there to detect threats to air travel such as weapons or explosives. However, if your bag is selected for inspection and illicit substances is found, the situation will be referred to local law enforcement for resolution. Recommend that you leave this stuff at home until the laws change. The screening workforce have enough headaches already.

  • Can I pass through Airport Security with Cooked lunch in my Carry-on/Personal during travels to the USA? I plan on making a trip to the USA for the summer, However, one of my flights has a long stop where I will be waiting for more than 10 hours until the next plane departs. As you can imagine that's a lot of waiting, and I don't want to buy the expensive food available at the airport. So is it okay to prepare a cooked meal and bring along with me? Example: Baked Chicken and Rice with steamed vegetables.

Is this going to be complicated? Any comments? Suggestions?
