I won't comment on the bike packing practice you recommend because my
experiences are different but I had a buddy who brought his own drink
powder in a large water bottle taped in his cage. Needless to say CDG
security picked his bike to unpack and took a fit when they saw the
powder in the bottle. Neither his offer to taste it nor all claims
that it was what it was avoided a 40 minute farce, and he finally
ended up tossing it down the toilet even though security really knew
it was sports drink.
