Minty Fresh Breath

We usually use the Crest Whitening brand of toothpaste. We've tried others but the Crest brand seems to work for us. However, the choice has not gone without it's share of problems.

First, we tried the Cinnamon flavor. I love it, MG was kind of "it's alright." Two problems with the cinnamon: I am a paleface so any skin touched by the toothpaste is inflamed for a little bit. Yeah, that's hot as you're crawling into bed. And, less of a problem, the taste clashes with the Listerine that we use.

Then I tried the Orange flavor. *shudder* It tasted like that orange slice candy, you know, the chewy kind? Blech.

Finally, we settled on the mint flavor. Always a safe bet. It mixes nicely with the Listerine. Ah, issue resolved.

And then while I was in a hurry and shopped by "color" instead of actually reading the package: I accidentally picked up the Vanilla flavored toothpaste.

Picture MG brushing his teeth. He finishes, kind of rolls his tongue around his mouth and announces:
"It's like brushing with....PUDDING."

It was immediately banished from the house. Seriously, whose idea was VANILLA?
