    Air France

    Apparently Air France recently stopped serving croque-monsieur as a snack on its Paris-Reunion flights because it was discovered that gruyere can be quickly and easily converted into a crude explosive using simple items that would not be normally prohibited from one's carry-on luggage.

    What would the cheese-to-explosive conversion process be? And what snack, if any, did Air France substitute for Parisians flying to Reunion?
