There was no smearing, because most of the time my baggage (on the way to the Phils) was in aircon surroundings... or freezing cold waiting for a bus in England.
I did pack the bars in sealed plastic bags and lunchboxes though...as I also do with shaving foam, etc. The lunchboxes also come in handy for storing stuff in the Phils... away from the damned ants !![]()
