I’ve started a new tube of toothpaste. It’s another “Tom’s of Maine” flavor. This one is called Gingermint. I got it in Nebraska when we went to a tree hugger store to look for a natural cold remedy for Beth. She couldn’t take regular cold medicine because she was pregnant at the time. (Eeeww, this toothpaste is old.)
It doesn’t actually have much flavor. It foams up some, not tasting like anything, then it’s HOT. After I’m done, my mouth still feels the burn. So far, this one most closely resembles regular toothpastes in its after-effects. The hot feeling is similar to the minty feeling other toothpastes leave in your mouth. Because it lacks flavor, this toothpaste would make a good ingredient for practical jokes when you want to make someone’s mouth burn.
I will use the whole tube. While the burning is a little uncomfortable, the “minty” feeling afterward is nice.

I think tht perhaps you should have a ‘toothpaste’ category. Also, Tom’s of Maine should have you as a spokesperson. You’re a great spokesperson for stuff.
Yes – a spokesperson! Then you could be like my friend Mike Rowe who makes big bucks doing the Ford commercials.
You could also have YOUR own Discovery Channel show “Death in Your Own Backyard” where you could teach viewers how to kill backyard pests.
You and your weird toothpaste…wierdo.
Personally, I’m horror-struck that you bought something that has mint in it. Mintist.
Mintist that you are, I meant.
Have you ever used any Burt’s Bees toothpastes or products?
Burt’s Lip balm rocks! I don’t know about any other stuff. Do you?
They have displays in our grocery stores here, but I didn’t really look at it, since I have a short list of organics that I buy. They have a pretty good Web site burtsbees.com
I just searched for Burt’s toothpaste. It’s discontinued.
