From Wikipedia:

"Sani-Flush was introduced by the Hygenic Products Company of Chicago, Illinois in 1911 as a toilet bowl cleaner; since 1922 it had also been promoted for flushing "rust, scale and sludge" from automobile radiators. Advertisements from the 1920s onward depicted a housewife in an apron using the product to disinfect the bowl and remove odours; it "cleans closet bowls without scouring" with "no drudgery whatsovever".Widely stocked in grocery and hardware stores, the product was a well-known household name and occasionally mentioned in children's jokes like "If Santa gets stuck in your chimney, use Santa Flush" and the apocryphal advertising slogan "Sani-Flush, Sani-Flush, cleans your teeth without a brush. All you do is pour it on; one, two, three, your teeth are gone." A strongly corrosive product, Sani-Flush was kept out of the reach of children as sodium bisulfate mixed with water produces sulphuric acid. Mixing Sani-Flush (as acid) with a caustic alkaline drain cleaner (such as Drano or Liquid-Plumr) can be deadly. Likewise, mixing Sani-Flush with bleach releases poisonous gas; on April 8, 1964 a Winn-Dixie food store in St. Petersburg, Florida was evacuated and eleven people hospitalised.Sani-Flush is mentioned several times in William S. Burroughs' novel Naked Lunch, where the product is used to "cut" (dilute) cocaine or where it is substituted for morphine by a pharmacist.The original product quietly disappeared from store shelves circa-2009; the US trademark was cancelled in 2013. Unlike rival Vanish, whose mark now serves to market other formats of toilet cleaner from the same manufacturer, the Sani-Flush name in the US was simply abandoned. "Sani-Flush" and "Sani-Flush Puck" retain their registered trademark status in Canada, but refer to a different toilet cleaner."
