Fat Tuesday: Dental Hygiene is IMPORTANT

When I was a little kid, I dreamed of frosting flavoured toothpaste. Why? Who knows. Probably because I was a little kid that liked candy. I used to eat tubble gum and pretend it was toothpaste...but I'd actually EAT it which was bad...and a mystery since I wouldn't eat real toothpaste to begin with, but it was so sugary and the texture wasn't really like gum so what the hell did I know.
But I digress. I went to Buffalo on the weekend and saw this on the shelf of a store.
CUPCAKE FLAVOURED TOOTHPASTE. I didn't even have to think about it, I just took it and bought it. The guy at the check-out was like "Oh, did you see the Bacon toothpaste?" ....to which I replied "That is absolutely disgusting". Fucking bacon again.
I remember years ago when they came out with Vanilla flavoured toothpaste, I thought that would be the closest I'd get to frosting toothpaste...but I guess I was wrong. The vanilla kind was actual toothpaste though, with fluoride, made by Crest.  I didn't really find any trace of anything that would clean your teeth in the ingredients of this stuff. It doesn't blatantly say that this is novelty toothpaste either though, so it's confusing. I guess if you're brushing your teeth with cupcake toothpaste, you're not too concerned with gingivitis.
It tastes nice....kinda like vanilla cupcakes, but also kinda like paste. I ate a little bit of it. It wasn't as good as a tootsie roll lip balm so I didn't eat too much. (Yes, I used to have a problem with eating stuff that wasn't supposed to be consumed like food. It's not my fault that it smelled and tasted so damn good. If you've ever had tootsie roll lip balm, you'll know).
The tube of this stuff is pretty small so I'll probably run out before it starts to disgust me. Good purchase overall...but totally a novelty. I'll have to re-brush my teeth after brushing with this stuff, which makes me think that I should've gotten the cupcake flavoured dental floss since I need something to push me to do that all the other 50 weeks of the year that I'm not about to go to the dentist. ZING!
