What happens to items removed from luggage?

To my knowledge, items confiscated from luggage are usually disposed of, in contrast to items left behind by accident, which are usually auctioned off if they can’t be returned to their owners.

What I find puzzling about your experience is that items such as chocolate or sweets might be confiscated by customs on arrival, but batteries and such are usually removed by a security check on departure. Also, it’s unusual for chocolates to be confiscated, since they are cooked and not usually considered potentially harmful.

Did the chocolates or sweets contain alcohol and you were departing from or arriving into a country that prohibits bringing alcohol in?
