According to Taiwanese media Mirror Media, a Taiwanese woman who had a shocking experience at a Japanese airport received reactions such as 'it was a learning experience' from netizens.
While shopping is one of the pleasures of overseas travel, this woman's shocking experience was that 'popular souvenirs she specifically bought during her Fukuoka trip, pudding and mentaiko mayonnaise, were discarded at the airport.'
These were not placed in checked baggage and were determined to be liquids during security screening. Furthermore, because they exceeded the carry-on limit for liquids, she could only stare blankly as they were thrown away.
The woman reported this experience on social media, commenting, 'It's not a huge loss, but when I think about all the souvenirs I worked hard to buy being confiscated, it's still disappointing and frustrating. I can only think that I paid money to buy this experience.' She also urged others to be careful not to encounter the same situation.
This post received a large response, and netizens raised additional comments such as 'fruit jelly, yokan, miso, and jam also require caution.' In addition, many people pointed out that stores issue warnings, and those planning overseas trips reacted with 'I learned something.' There were also comments such as 'Lessons learned the hard way (by paying money) are the most memorable' and 'I'll make a note of this! I was scheduled to fly this Sunday.'
