Bad breath remedies

if you do it directly + impolitely: btw your fucking breath smells like a cow-pat - they will probably think you are a twat. If you approach them with more subtlety and politeness they might still think you are a twat because most people don't like getting managed/handled, and sometimes even more so when it is done "nicely". I don't know of a way that they won't end up harbouring recent mints resentments against you.
