Traveling with.....

[bossass]

...special brownies.

Like on a plane. Just a few.

Bad idea?

Can dogs smell them?

[GheePup]

Dogs can smell them and dogs like chocolate too, even though chocolate is very bad for dogs. My recommendation is that you eat the special brownies before you get on the plane and leave the not so special ones for the dogs.

Upon arrival find the ingredients to make more special brownies for snacks during your trip.

[Sinecure]

Travelling where? I don't know if I'd attempt a border crossing, but I wouldn't be too concerned about domestic flights. Then again, why not just fedex them to yourself? Not too expensive and much lower risk.

[Seldom Seen]

i really dont think its a bad idea. People travel with food very often. unless you look like a wookie, nobody is gonna assume that it is ganja food. I've never had any problem with it, even with post 9/11 heightened security

[Squatch]

i've always found that it takes a little while to kick in, anyways. pound those brownies before you go through security and enjoy your flight.

[mc_roon]

done it before. All sorts of edible goods. Never had an issue, just keep them wrapped up, and eat them fast depending on if they smell or not.

EDIT: Should be ok even for international flights, as long as you eat them before landing and going through customs and arent tweaked out.

[iceman]

Depends where you're going.

[TheDingleberry]

Jamie,
Seriously. Pack them in the checked luggage bro. But eat a few before you get on the plane.

Like every college kid in the country doesn't fly back and forth from school-home with a quarter taped to their ballsack.

For domestic flights? When was the last time you were searched, much less sniffed by a dog? Ziplock bag in your pocket. NO LIGHTER, since it will get confiscated. You'll never set off an alarm that way.

I've walked onto a plane with an 8-ball of coke in my shirt pocket. Totally forgot I had it in there (I thought it was hidden in my camera) and never got a second glance.

All bets are off if you're flying internationally. Heading out might be OK, but those FDA Beagles in NYC smell everything!

How fucking desperate are you to get high?

I like your style man.

I have never been sniffed (except by my grossed out wife), but twice in the last year I have gotten patted down randomly...and another time because my driver's license was expired and so I didn't have proper ID.

There was no ball cuppage, however. But I don't think I'd just put a sack in my pocket at this point.

[MassLiberal]

I flew to Chile once with a huge nug in my fleece pocket. Bags were checked by dogs, and had no idea until I was hiking in Torres del Paines, reached into my pocket to see what the heck this large lump was, and low and behold, after I got over realizing how close I was to sitting in a chilean jail, I enjoyed my hike that much more.

[Tippster]

...after I got over realizing how close I was to sitting in a chilean jail, followed by frantically searching for something to smoke with/from, I enjoyed my hike that much more.

Fixed it for ya.

[TurxSki]

...well...no experience "smuggling" on domestic flights...but...

Coming in to Sydney (Oz) airport, carrying nothing, but we did smoke as much as we could before leaving home.
We were the only "Freaks" in a line of wrinklies.

Couple of custom agents and dog come over. Dog goes Doo-Lallee.
They searched our bags. Took our shoes, and bags of Peet's away to x-ray.

The guy wanted to know when we last had a smoke, when we're all "don't know what you mean, mate", he reassured us we would get into the country, but they wanted to know how sensitive the doggy was.

If you're going ahead, but are paranoid. Try getting it vacuum sealed:

and/or put it in a Roasting Bag. They're supposed to be impervious.

Yeh, eat it and get on the plane.

[danhikeski]

i've flown with a small nug, put it in a baggie, wrapped it in duct tape and then stuffed it in the bottom of my down sleeping bag and had no problems, twice. just try to isolate the smell and you should be ok.

This is your best bet. They usually take about 45 minutes to take effect.

[mr_gyptian]

you know that wand looking thing with the felt like pad at the end? the one they touch about every fifth carry on bag with? If they're touching your bag with it, they can detect dope.

don't know where you're going, but I'd seriously consider picking up some when you get there. You're not flying El Al, but security is tighter these days.

Really?

I always assumed that was for explosive's residue, to see if you'd been playing with diesel fuel and fertilizer recently. It seems like it would add a whole new level of price and complication if it detected drug residue as well. And hell, doesn't that mean that you could be clean as a whistle, but have handled half-a-pound of northern lights in the recent past and thus set off their detectors? I know that while they've swabbed down the handles of my carry-on I've thought, "when was the last time I rolled a joint?"

As for snacking and then flying: Well, it can be fun; but be careful. Nothing sucks more than missing your flight and then having to deal with that hassle just as you're reaching the point where the ability to handle a coherent conversation is almost gone. A uh.... friend (yeah, that's it) has done this once with a plane and once with a train in Amsterdam. Neither experience was that much fun. ... or... uh, so he told me.

[SkiED]

Yeah Im almost positive that is for explosive residue, where the hell are you getting your information from?

*COUGH* Bullshit *COUGH*
i've had them wand my bag with herb in it after being "forced" to smoke a huge joint in the car right before arriving to the airport. No beepy-beepy from the magic wand, though i was scared shitless.

Explosive residue. If you're in the company of your baggage at the time, they have to tell you what they're looking for, that's what they tell you. They do the same at Brit. ports nowadays.

Damn Tippy, you're one lucky mofo.

[schindlerpiste]

Best thing is to keep it in your pocket, close to you. No one in customs is looking for a 1/2 oz. of herb, or an 1/8 of cheese. You run into problems when you are too careful in trying to hide it. OTOH, triple plastic bag stuffed in a filled shampoo bottle is foolproof.
