So tired of berry bomb blast flavored tooth paste that leaves me drooling with chemical copper pipe taste. I know there is Toms of Maine but thats the other extreme, sap and charcoal. I want watermelon flavored, put in Xylitol. I want turkey and gravey flavored toothpaste. Whiskey flavored toothpaste should exist. And while we are on toothpaste, new tube design plese! How about a pump style tube that comes in 1 gallon sizes. What's with the small containers that need constant replacing. And the containers that get stored upside down but then the cap gets soaked with bathroom scum water, perfect for when you use it next. I’d buy it.

In the first panel Brutus Thornapple (the Born Loser) is brushing his teeth as his wife Gladys is walking by and asks him, "What on earth is that smell?!" In the second panel he replies, "Whiskey toothpaste." To which she asks, "Is that suppose to prevent cavities?" And in the third panel he replies, "No, but you don't worry about them."

It's fantastic. Very flavorful and not too sweet. On the other hand, I find I CANNOT reccomend 'The Natural Dentist' products. I bought their anti-cavity rinse (I have cavities, incidentally, from going to bed, teeth unbrushed, after drinking too much whiskey too many times) and it is HORRID. Aloe, menthol, and citric acid. Bad times. Love it.
