  1. Went down a weird rabbit hole…

    When I was a kid, my brother and I used to go into my mom’s purse to sneak her favorite gum: Clorets. We loved it

    Turns out Clorets was designed/marketed as “breath deodorant.”

    Turns out the bad-breath ingredient is called “Actizol,” which includes chlorophyll. Yeah. From plants.

    Turns out chlorophyll is used as a food additive for green coloring. Including in the liquor banned in many countries, absinthe.

    You’re welcome.
