Comment on Why Everything At Airports Is So Expensive - Business Insider

You’re missing the point. You get past security, where you have to throw away food and drink, so where else are you going? Either suck it up or buy a water or items since you have nowhere else to get them.

No I’m not. You can bring food past security, not liquids. I’ve brought on food bought from outside the airport & I always carry an empty reusable water bottle through security. Maybe check your privilege before going off on mansplaining.

Lmao “mansplaining” my “privilege”. Any other buzzwords you want to add.
