Product Recall-Listerine Agent Cool Blue Plaque Detecting Rinse
Younger son happens to have used this a few times so I though I would post the recall here just in case someone else is using this product. I copied it directly from their site. Luckily younger son lost interest in seeing blue teeth after two or three uses.
