Binaca (breath spray)

Binaca is an American brand of breath spray distributed by Ranir, LLC, a subsidiary of Perrigo.

In 1971, Binaca promoted its breath freshener products by selling a recipe booklet titled The Antisocial Cookbook for $1, which contains 150 recipes "extolling the virtues of garlic, onions, cheese [...]" and other ingredients known to cause breath odors; the reasoning for this was that Binaca's breath products would "make you socially acceptable" after eating such dishes.

[4] In October 1993, articles in The Boston Globe and The Tribune reported that children and teenagers were supposedly inhaling Binaca in order to induce intoxication.

[5][6] The administration of Los Osos Middle School in Los Osos, California, prohibited students from possessing Binaca, citing safety concerns.
