Who would have thought?
When travelling through an airport, like Dublin Airport, most of us know at this stage that you cannot bring some items such as liquids above 100ml or any sharp objects in your hand luggage.
The last thing we would expect to be banned from bringing is mustard, particularly the Guinness Wholegrain Mustard variety. But, it turns out not only are you not allowed to bring that through security, but it’s also one of the most confiscated goods going through Dublin Airport.
RTÉ reached out to Dublin Airport to find out the most confiscated item, outside of the ordinary ones like water or sharp items, and it was the humble jar of Guinness Wholegrain Mustard.
Why it’s banned, we don’t know. We’ve reached out to DAA for the reason.
If these are the most confiscated items in Dublin, then it got us thinking – what about Cork and Shannon?
Unfortunately, their answers weren’t as exciting. Cork said it’s over-sized liquids and knives, while Shannon Airport said they couldn’t share any information regarding confiscated goods.
We were really hoping it would be Ballymaloe Relish or Clonakilty Pudding.
