I only wish to know if the flying authorities (TSA in the USA) will permit me to keep to my dietary needs or will confiscate my food as terrorist weapons.
Perhaps you were feeling a tad overly dramatic when you posted this?

Seriously, you have Type II Diabetes, hardly a rare condition. My husband has the same as do many other travelers.

If you are going the low carb route the answer is to simply use common sense. Would sardines in a tin be appropriate...probably not. Easily solved placing them in a small plastic container...or even more easily solved by NOT CHOOSING SARDINES FOR YOUR FLIGHT. There are many other choices in your diet.

As for utensils there are many avenues available to obtain plastic "sporks".

Its Type II Diabetes for heaven's sake, hardly "Boy in the Plastic Bubble" restrictions.
