Shopping & Tax-free裏技 HACK
avoids losing your souvenirs
確認済CONFIRMED
Bringing miso home? Put it in your checked bag, not carry-on
Airport security treats miso paste like a liquid/gel even when sealed. One traveller had theirs taken at check-in; pack miso, jams and similar pastes in checked luggage.
Check first: Rule applied by the airline/security on that flight; liquid rules vary by airport.
