Ryanair and Marmite
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My daughter flew to Germany from Stansted yesterday with Ryanair.
Her hand luggage was searched at Stansted and a small jar of Marmite confiscated on the basis that it was a "liquid".
Anyone else consider Marmite to be a liquid? The jar I have shows the product to be a thick paste.
(For those outside the UK "Marmite" is a long-established vegetarian food spead made from yeast products.It is dark brown and very thick.)
When airline security confiscates something from a passenger, what happens to that confiscated item?

I don't think that had anything to do with the airline, that would be airprort security. Personally I would not consider it to be a liquid but the regulations (
