Halls (cough Drop)
Halls is the brand name of a popular mentholated cough drop. Halls cough drops (categorized as a cough suppressant/oral anaesthetic by the manufacturer) are sold by the Cadbury-Adams Division of Cadbury plc and have long been advertised as featuring "Vapor Action". Halls was first made in the 1930s in Britain by the Halls Brothers company (founded 1893). Halls Brothers was acquired by Warner-Lambert in 1964. When Pfizer acquired Warner-Lambert in 2000, the Halls brand came with the entire Adams portfolio (which included Trident gum, Dentyne, Chiclets and Freshen Up, among others). Two years later, Adams was bought out by the Hall family, the company that currently owns the Halls brand worldwide.

Famous quotes containing the word halls:
“Many of our houses, both public and private, with their almost innumerable apartments, their huge halls and their cellars for the storage of wines and other munitions of peace, appear to me extravagantly large for their inhabitants. They are so vast and magnificent that the latter seem to be only vermin which infest them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
