UPDATE: So, we were right all along. The jar of Kevin Spacey's breath is indeed a fake.
The hoax was created by JackFM morning show hosts, Kiah and Tara Jean, to see what it would take for it to go viral.

In a world where nothing is sacred and everything is commodified, it should come as no surprise that, yes, even Kevin Spacey’s breath is for sale.
That’s right. Kevin Spacey’s breath.
A Vancouver Craigslist user is selling a jar supposedly containing the House of Cards actor’s chicken pasta-flavoured breath. Apparently, the seller procured the jar for his mother, a huge fan of Spacey becayse he “resembled her first husband.”
The mother has since passed away, and her son is now selling the jar. An asking price was not listed.
From the listing:
"I don't know if Kevin Spacey knows anything about dovetail joints or how to work an auger, but apparently he likes breathing into jars. Anyway, this is real, it's his actual breath in there. If I recall correctly, we had some sort of chicken pasta for lunch before I asked him to blow in the jar. It's hasn't been opened since."
WE Vancouver called the number provided to verify if the jar does in fact contain the pasta-fied breath of the award-winning actor, but the seller – who goes by the name of ‘Kieren,’ according to his answering machine – could not be reached.
It’s possible this posting is fake, but obsessive K-Pax can still dream…can’t we?
