Answer to Mystery Photo Friday: Nasal Aspirator (aka Snot Sucker)
Several readers guessed that the mystery product I picked up in a Parisian pharmacy was a Nasal Aspirator, designed to remove mucus from a baby's nose. I've read that this type of "snot sucker" works much better than the bulb aspirators we use in the US. The parent inhales through the mouthpiece and mucus magically fills the device (a strategically placed cotton ball prevents things from going too far). Somehow, though, I've never gotten up the nerve to use it and it sat in its unopened box until I decided that it would make a fun Photo Friday post!
