SYD Airport Security Confiscates "Dangerous" Tuna

I have always treated the guys who scan crew carry on bags with respect and courtesy.
Today that ended.
My two cans of John West 185gm tuna and three beans were confiscated.
Why?
The scanner could not determine the liquid content of the cans and therefore determined they were a dangerous good.
I asked for written information regarding this.None was available.
I wanted to speak to a supervisor.He would not present himself.
Now I'm pissed off.
I have been taking canned tuna away with me for years.All of a sudden its a dangerous good.
The amount of liquid contained in the cans is less than a teaspoon full.
I have the screeners name and intend to take this further.
The world has gone mad
