Mentos are known as The Freshmaker, but are they also the fail maker? Acumen Law Corporation lawyers Kyla Lee and Paul Doroshenko tested the mint candies to see if they can give, what would appear to be, an alcohol reading on a roadside approved screening device (ASD).
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.
