TSA officially decides you can't take peanut butter on an airplane 

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has declared that peanut butter cannot be packed indiscriminately on flights within and connecting to the US, arguing it is a liquid substance and therefore banned under aviation security rules.

For years, to Jif-lover's dismay, the the agency tasked with vetting Americans for air travel has maintained the savory snack is a liquid - due to it having 'no definite shape' and taking a form 'dictated by its container.'

Thus, the agency insists, a passenger can 'spill it, spread it, spray it, pump it or pour it' while traveling - a potential safety hazard the TSA says can disrupt flights and other passengers' experience.
