Pureed Foods

[Amina]

Does anyone on this forum follow a strictly pureed diet? Under doctor's advice I am only eating ground foods. I'm wondering how I'm going to eat on the airplane. Any ideas?

Are you allowed to bring drinks in your bag? If so, you could bring some Ensure drinks, they're usually safe for people with IBD and they're gluten/dairy free if you have any other dietary restrictions. They taste really bad though.

I know TSA has certain rules that you can bring more than the standard amount of liquid if it is for medical reasons
here is the official info: http://www.tsa.gov/traveler-information/medically-necessary-liquids-gels-and-aerosols

I would suggest getting a doctor's note explaining why bringing pureed food is medically necessary and pack an insulated lunch bag with your food in containers. Maybe pack bananas, avocados, and well-cooked squash too. These could all be carried in solid form, then mashed well with a fork when you want to eat them.
