From http://www.agentcoolblue.com/

"Consumer Statement
McNEIL-PPC, Inc. has announced a voluntary nationwide consumer recall of all lots of the GLACIER MINT™ and BUBBLE BLAST™ flavors of LISTERINE® AGENT COOL BLUE™ Plaque-Detecting Rinse after the Company determined that the preservative system is not adequate against certain microorganisms. McNEIL-PPC, Inc. has been in full communication with the FDA regarding this issue and the decision to implement a voluntary recall. For further detail, please see complete press release."

Looks like a pre-emptive recall, but still something to consider.

Regards,
Rory

Rory,
In the past 18 months, while I've been braced, you have been my favorite posters. Love your informative, easy-to-read style. And, love all the technical information and language. I've learned a lot from you.

Thanks!
