Traveling with prenatal gummies – any issues with melting or TSA?
Hey all, heading out on a long road trip and then a hiking trip. I usually take my prenatal gummies daily, but I'm worried about them melting in the car or backpack. Also, any TSA issues if I carry them through airports? They're in the original bottle but I might transfer to a smaller container. Advice appreciated!
I fly all the time with my gummy vitamins. TSA doesn't bat an eye if they're in the original bottle or a labeled container. For melting, I just keep them in my carry-on or purse, not in checked luggage where temps fluctuate. For hiking, I put them in a small ziplock inside a hard case (like an old sunglasses case) to avoid crushing. Never had them turn to goo, even in summer heat.
+1 on the carry-on. Also, if you're worried about heat, you can get a small insulated pouch (I use a tech gear one for my SSD). Keeps them coolish. Pro tip: throw a reusable ice pack in the same pouch if you're really paranoid. But for short trips, mine survived fine just in my backpack side pocket.
Thanks both! I'll stick to carry-on and maybe grab an insulated pouch. The hiking is in moderate weather so probably fine. Appreciate the tips!
