Random TSA luggage question

[ClapYourHands]

Has anyone ever traveled with a bunch of those little containers restaurants give you for sauces, salad dressing, etc.? They're only 2oz, so theoretically they should be okay going through TSA screening, but I don't know for sure. I was thinking of portioning out peanut butter, jelly, cream cheese, etc. I realize I could do a grocery delivery, but there's no way we'd use a whole regular container of those things (5 day trip), so it just seems wasteful to trash nearly full jars of food. We won't be checking bags either down or back, so everything must be carry-on-able.

Thoughts?

It looks as if you will be safe to carry all of those and here is the TSA website and what it says
TSA Liquids Rule

They also have a page on what exactly you can and can't bring on board
What Can I Bring

I highly suggest looking specifically what they say about the following
Light Saber and
Magic 8 Ball

They also have an app available search MyTSA in your app store

This seems like a headache, but knock yourself out.

https://www.cntraveler.com/story/can-you-bring-food-through-airport-security Has a great quote from a TSA spokesperson about what is included in the 3-1-1 rules. Bring as much as you want, but it has to all fit in a 1 qt bag.

Funny I have actually been through TSA with a Magic 8 Ball. I have an autistic son. He packed his own carry on bag of hats (he likes hats). Bag got pulled by TSA. They found the Magic 8 ball (I had no idea it was in there). TSA agent was training and did not know if they were allowed (at the time I don't think they were addressed). She kept calling for backup but no one came. Finally my husband said "Why don't you just ask the Magic 8 Ball?" She did and Magic 8 Ball said "Forever". It was a Love Magic 8 Call. She shrugged and let us go with the Magic 8 Ball in hand. Definitely received a little Magic that day.
