Man's BLT Sandwich Sets Off Airport Bomb Detector

Quote:
We all know there's no such thing as a free meal, but these days even an included meal on a flight is hard to come by. If you're not willing to cough up a couple of bucks for a box of individually packaged semi-edibles, you're going to go hungry on that coast-to-coast flight. So, more and more people are packing meals, and if you're one of those frugal brown baggers, keep this in mind: Leave the BLT at home, lest you be forced to eat it in a bomb proof room.

One German man was attempting to get through security for a flight when his suitcase set off the bomb detector alarm. He was a bit nervous as his wife had packed his lunch and apparently they'd had a bit of a spat before he left, so he wasn't sure just what was actually in the lunch bag. As it turns out, it was just a bacon sandwich, and bacon apparently has the same density as common explosives, setting off the alarm and causing all sorts of commotion.
