I was flying from India to Italy. I checked in my luggage, went through all the security checks, and was approaching the boarding gate. But then my name was called over the loudspeaker. It scared me, but it confused me even more. Right at the boarding gate, the airport staff checked my passport again and asked me to wait. And then I saw two tall security guards and a woman dressed very formally coming towards me. She asked me to follow her and asked if I had anything prohibited in my luggage. I said that I didn’t have anything like that. They took me to some lower floors where only the staff can go, and then we found ourselves in a room with a bunch of luggage. The woman showed me an X-ray of my bag on the computer and pointed to two large spherical figures. I froze because I couldn’t remember where I got the two balls from. Then I was asked to open my bag, and everyone saw... 2 large dried coconuts. Silence reigned. That's when I learned that coconuts are not allowed in luggage. The staff apologized for the inconvenience, and the coconuts were confiscated.
