Per TSA's website:

Formula, breast milk and juice in quantities greater than 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters are allowed in carry-on baggage and do need to not fit within a quart-sized bag. These items should be separated from other liquids, gels and aerosols limited to 3.4 ounces.

Ice packs, freezer packs, frozen gel packs and other accessories required to cool formula, breast milk and juice are allowed in your carry-on. If these accessories are partially frozen or slushy, they are subject to the same screening as described above. You may also bring gel or liquid-filled teethers, canned, jarred and processed baby food in carry-on baggage. These items may be subject to additional screening.

10:12 here. Note that if you bring formula in bottles, use clear bottles. That way they can test it without opening it. I learned this the hard way when I happened to have the one "clear" pink bottle with us.

The smaller pouches (like applesauce) are easier. They just check the size and let you through. If you have the bigger ones, they'll make you open one and wave the test strip over it. That takes longer through security. I've never had the pouches or Horizon milk boxes taken from me, just needed more screening.

They made me open one of my horizon milks. And then I didn't want to waste it by tossing it and DS didnt' want to drink it, so it ended up making a bit of a mess. Just FYI, maybe bring one that he has already been drinking and is almost empty.
