Corbin - Good to know
I don't use fluoride as I don't want steel by-products in my mouth.

Maybe the high fluoride dollar store toothpaste is a good thing...
I hear American kids are drinking so much soda and bottled water (no fluoride) the percentage of kids with cavities has gone outta sight.

Well I bought 10 packs of
Cherry Cool-Aid from the dollar store last week...I wonder if it's cherry? I wonder if it's cool-aid?

YIKES! Corbin..is anything safe anymore? Good thing I don't shop at the

Toothpaste from Canada? Surely they're jesting - I gotta investigate - I see another series looming...

Glad to see someone not just putting those e-mails up without doing some level of research first.
I applaud you for that, since it really seems to be a rare thing at times.
 
Since the dentists charge $15 for a tube of the higher fluoride, prescription strength toothpaste, those who are on prescription level toothpaste can save some money through this.

Corbin,
I always buy the same brand of toothpaste - would never dream of buying it in a one-dollar (or euro) shop!
