How do you carry fruit on an international flight?

You can pretty much bring any solid fruit and veggies in your carry-on and luggage. You can generally bring any solid food items such as sandwiches, granola bars, muffins to snack on, or to have at your destination. Good to know: Avoid bring fruits or foods that are mashed or pureed, as this turns it into a liquid.
