The Spaghetti Policy

Under the 'Marinara Clause' of my own invention, the sauce is technically a 'beverage' and the pasta a 'medical necessity' for my soul, but since the rules explicitly forbid outside food and beverage containers, the verdict is a hard NO. I would however argue in a higher court that a clear plastic freezer bag of naked noodles is a 'clutch bag' under the bag policy, but alas, the law is a blind fool.

Unofficial, untangled, and legally meaningless. Trust the real rules above.
