Can You Fail a Breathalyzer with Vanilla Extract?

Acumen Law Corporation lawyers Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko were inspired by a news story about a woman who was allegedly driving around drunk on vanilla for the latest “Can You Fail It?”. They tested artificial vanilla extract, commonly used in baking, to see if it can give, what would appear to be, an alcohol reading on an approved screening device (ASD).

The results were truly surprising.

In “Can You Fail It?” we put everyday household consumables to the test to ask, Can You Fail It? That is, can you give a false positive reading on a breathalyzer after consuming it.

Remember, we are testing whether these products will generate a false positive reading on an ASD. Some items may or may not register on an ASD when they are present in your mouth. They do not necessarily have to be absorbed by your body to show up on a breathalyzer.
