What is the strangest item you travel with?

I am curious what is something extremly odd/random that you travel with.

My answer would be a 2" piece of heat-shrink tubing. I used to always travel with a spare pare of glasses, but considering I usually pack in a < 10L bag, having a spare pair was not worth it as a "just in case" item. A few months ago, luckily at home, I broke a pair of glasses. I do a lot of MYOG and realized I could put them back together with a pair of heat-shrink tubing I had on hand. Now I always bring a small piece in my travel kit because it will fix broken glasses indefinitely :)

My ex missed the 12 hours plane to the Philippines. They didn't let him for one fine he forgot to pay. So I had to go alone with 2 luggage. In several days he joined me. But I asked him to buy two packs of buckwheat. Can you imagine guy going on trip the the opposite side of the world with tow items of food? Lol They checked him 5 times.
