Kiss-O-Meter meant to detect bad breath

Breathing into your cupped hand and then sniffing is an ineffective way to check for bad breath. The Kiss-O-Meter might work better. Brownlee has more over at Boing Boing Gadgets.

You don't have to spend money to check your breath. Just lick the back of your hand, let it dry, and then take a sniff. Very reliable.
