A new mother of a 7 month old wants "alternative screening" for her breast milk, instead of putting it through the x-ray, as per TSA guidelines.
She ends up being detained for over 45 minutes, misses her flight. and is told she has 2 choices. Put the milk through the x-ray or dump it.

Important Information on Traveling With Formula, Breast Milk, and Juice
http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/children/formula.shtm
Now, a mother flying without her child will be able to bring breast milk through the checkpoint, provided it is declared prior to screening.
TSA is also modifying the rules associated with carrying breast milk through security checkpoints. Mothers flying with, and now without, their child will be permitted to bring breast milk in quantities greater than three ounces as long as it is declared for inspection at the security checkpoint.
Breast milk is in the same category as liquid medications.
When carrying formula, breast milk, or juice through the checkpoint, they will be inspected, however, you or your infant or toddler will not be asked to test or taste breast milk, formula, or juice. Our Security Officers may test liquid exemptions (exempt items more than 3 ounces) for explosives.
