I will be taking a 14 hour international flight in about a month. My friend said when he traveled internationally 2 years ago he baked some cookies and ate them as they took off and the flight was wonderful. I wanted to do the same, but am concerned with the possibility of getting busted. Do I have anything to worry about?

there not going to let your bring it on the plane to begin with now and days, let alone even into the airport. they seem to be very strict on what you can bring on planes, you cant even bring a tube of toothpaste on the plane, so im guessing anything would raise a brow.

For a cookie I guess if it raises anyones suspicion you could claim to be a diabetic. You can bring toothpaste and what not. But nothing larger than 3fl oz. for carry on. Checked luggage for anything larger.

i dunno, last time i flew in august, no liquids or cremes on board and no food or drink, no exceptions, people were dumping out hundreds of dollars worth of make up and other shit. Everything had to go on checked luggage. You could bring milk for a baby but u had to drink some of it. Diabetic... i dont know. Not worth the bigger problems it could cause. say they looked into this disease you say u have and u dont, u might be in alot of trouble. but hey i practically walked right through security and u could stash them in ur baggage deep, they could let you through with them and if they dont, there just cookies tell them you will eat them befor u get on or something. If people can bring actuall weeed on a plane u can do this, but it may be tricky

Yeah August was before they eased up on it. TSA (http://www.tsa.gov/press/happenings/9-25_updated_passenger_guidance.shtm) current liquid/gel rules

I'm more concerned with the prospect of a dog sniffing them out, as I am traveling internationally. Do I have anything to worry about on this front?

I wouldn't try with international flights. You got to deal with customs as well then. I would rather try to mail it to myself where ever I'm going if I had too.

I'll only go through customs when I arrive at my destination...they will be LONG gone before then
