Just include it in the bag with your other liquids and gels and put it through the scanner separately and you'll be fine. They don't scrutinize sizes... they do go apeshit if you don't follow the scan procedures

Yep - one of the middle size ziplock baggies..

When I have things which are larger than the 3oz, I get a travel container at Target and transfer some of my stuff into it.
