Antipoleez: Breath mints that mask drunk driving?

[Unamused Cat]

Sherry Ambolino could have used some of this.

A Brooklyn, N.Y., company is marketing a breath mint that may be so curiously strong it is raising eyebrows of concerned consumers.

It’s called "AntiPoleez," and is advertised as a way to eliminate bad breath caused by alcohol, tobacco and food, My FOX New York reports.

Critics say the name and marketing angle could promote alcohol abuse, leading people to believe they can pass a police breath test, or encourage underage kids to drink alcohol and attempt to cover it up. The company’s president denies that is the intention of his product.

I wonder how much stronger these are than Altoids. We've used them since I was drinking in high school. :p Seriously, though, if people want to drink they're going to drink. I don't think this is going to significantly affect the amount of people drinking.

Dude, if the popo look like that she can handcuff me any time.

Anyway, I seriously doubt this things work, even if they are far stronger than any mint out there you are just puting a minty smell over the booze smell, not geting rid of the original, a chug of pepto and brushing your teeth would do a far bether job than puting those toilet cleaners on your mouth.

If anything this crap is probably geting press because the shamless "antepoleez" advertisement, cant wait till some retards get tested imediatley for having that mint case in plain view of the cops or the spelling police for that mather.

It's kind of like that drink mix powder called "Blow" that's getting a ton of shit because it's marketed as if it were Cocaine. Come on, people. Are we really going to believe that any significant group of people are going to buy it and then move onto Cocaine because of it??? Let's get real.

It won't fool a breathalizer.
