They don't allow any liquids (even semi-liquids, like shampoo, hair gel etc.), but solid food is not a problem. I know, because I had two teenagers go back to Germany this past week, one on Monday with Transat, and one yesterday with British Airways. Even the one with British Airways was fine with solid food.

so.... I accidentally got on the plane with a drink... lol.. I don't know how it happened.. but I was in a rush ran into Cibo at JFK and grabbed food and drink for the plane.. totally forgetting drinks weren't allowed... when I got on the plane I thought UT-OH... I had a HORIZON Strawberry Milk... I went without drink because I was afraid of being attacked by an undercover cop for drinking milk... lol... whoops.. but I did find 2 gluten free items in Cibo.. a sesami bar that was OK.. but not worth the fat... and this chocolate popcorn that was pretty good and low fat :)

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
