Alright, so, I ran out of toothpaste. I was using this stuff that's been around forever and it was a lot cheaper than the other brands.... I forgot what it was called already. Three colored toothpaste. You probably know it if you saw it. (Maybe aquafresh?) Anyway, it was kinda crappy compared to this toothpaste that my dentist gave me in one of those mini-tubes. (Crest enamel protection or something... I couldn't find it at the store) How was it crappy? It tasted a lot worse than the stuff I got in the mini-tube.

But, what do you use and why

Colgate.

Used to use aquafresh when growing up while the rest of the family used colgate for a long time but started using colgate after a bit and aquafresh was not available in most stores as much so was easier just to use colgate.

Toms of Maine because the flavor's are better, and it doesn't have the disgusting sweetness of mainstream toothpaste.

I knew it!

It's easy to make if you're willing to deal with the mess.

I've never tried candy making. I use to know principles of it, but never got around to making any. Used to bake a lot too, but I got out of the habit for some reason :^/

I wanted to make jelly beans years ago and when I saw what goes into making them it blew my mind! :eek:

Funny how a thread on toothpaste veered into candy. It's like someone reversed the polarity on the plating tank mid batch run!

Crest Pro-Health Toothpaste - Clean Cinnamon

I can't stand the "minty" flavor of other toothpastes.

Whatever kind my mom buys, but I prefer the orange-labeled Aquafresh. Just putting the toothpaste-applied-brush up to my face causes my eyes to sting a little from all the lovely flouride goodness, and their products foam better than Colgate and (especially) Crest.

Sensodyne Extra Whitening - because I don't want my teeth to hurt when eating cold foods, do want them to have a nice white color, and don't want them to fall out via tooth decay.

Sensodyne is hell of cool shit bro.

I use Sensodyne, the bio-active foaming gel stuff. Gets all crazy up in between your teeth

I'll make the Crest company happy by mentioning them. Just bought a couple tubes of Crest this weekend, for no other reason than the coupons we had made them cheaper than the Colgate. Not sure how we did it, all we bought was laundry soap & personal products like toothpaste, deodorant, hair spray, soap, shampoo, etc. But our total coupon savings was almost $40.

You saved $40 on personal hygiene products? You sure must have stunk bad. Glad you got it taken care of.

The cheapest Crest or Colgate cavity fighting toothpaste I can find at Target. It's usually the 2 pack that's on sale.
