Does marijuana show up in airport xrays?

Yes, unless you hide it in a lead box, marijuana will show up on both the carry-on x-rays and your x-rays. The #1 thing someone gets caught with at airports is marijuana, especially small amounts. However, the TSA has removed the full-body x-rays from major airports, so carrying it on you would get through.
