It’s been a long time since I tried a new toothpaste. My last three or four tubes of toothpaste have been Biotene. I like it. It works. No problem.
But then I saw a new Tom’s of Maine flavor called “Wicked Fresh”. How could I not buy it? My difficulty with Tom’s of Maine paste is that it has kind of a weak flavor. The gel formulations are stronger, but I never see them in stores. So when I saw a formula that was specifically made to be stronger-tasting, I was excited. When I saw it was peppermint, I was less excited. It’s not my favorite.
The toothpaste is good. It is very strong-tasting. It foams well. And it has fluoride. I won’t stop using it (as I have some other test subjects). But once it’s gone, I think I’ll go back to Biotene. Unless I find something else in the meantime.
I bet that flavor is really popular in Boston among the wicked smaht people.
Burt’s Bees is making toothpaste now. Have you seen it?
It probably tastes like pomegranate and honeycomb, though.
I specifically went looking for that once and read something that said they had stopped making toothpaste. So maybe they’ve started again?
*after some internet searching*
They have! And they’re sending free samples out. But you have to agree to receive their email newsletter in order to get the sample. Tricksy hobbitses…

I signed up for the free sample…it’ll take 8-12 weeks…sheesh!
But was it wicked fresh?
I’d like for you to try this product & of course give us a report.

My dad carries this in his specialty pharmacy and uses it at home. I tried it once. YUCK. You basically chew what looks like coconut flakes, but tastes like soap flakes. You’re left with a not-so-fresh soap taste. Super gross.
