Some of these items can still be carried inside the checked luggage.
The EU legislation about the transport of liquids also disposes to bring on board liquids for a maximum of 1 litre divided into units of 100 ml, placed in a transparent re-sealable plastic bag that has to be shown to the staff of the security checkpoints.
Regional arrangements also limit the transport of pork fitted with oval health mark accompanied by a proper certificate issued by the official veterinarian of the establishment where you purchased it. Food with without this certification can be carried only if they have been purchased at the “sterile areas” (beyond the security checks) of the airport.
