Listerine Total Care Zero is the mouthwash equivalent of a minty revolution. As someone who likes to rebel against the tyranny of bad breath, this alcohol-free concoction has become my trusty sidekick. The 1L size is like having a personal moat of minty freshness to guard against the dragon breath that occasionally rears its ugly head. However, I must admit that the absence of alcohol takes away the fiery kick I secretly enjoyed— it's like a peppermint without the rebellious tingle, a bit like a punk rock band playing a lullaby.

The fluoride inclusion is a nod to dental health that my dentist would probably high-five me for, if they weren't busy poking around my molars. It's like giving my teeth a superhero cape against cavities, and I appreciate the oral health vigilance. The only downside is that it tastes a bit like victory but with a hint of dental clinic waiting room. I sometimes catch myself wondering if my mouthwash is plotting a surprise dental check-up in cahoots with my toothbrush. It's like a minty conspiracy, and I'm not sure whether to be impressed or slightly paranoid.    -
