7. English Christmas Crackers
English Christmas crackers seem like a lovely holiday treat—until you learn that you’re not allowed to bring them with you on the plane. Sorry, guys, but that’s true.
These bite-sized pieces wrapped in colorful packages are actually small contraptions with a prize hidden inside made up of candy, toy crowns, and candy. According to the TSA, Christmas crackers become tricky on a plane when someone wants to get to the hidden surprise.
You have to pull on both ends of the cracker to split it in two—all the while making a snapping noise. For this reason, TSA doesn’t allow anyone to board the plane with English Christmas crackers.
