jwhee, apparently that joke went over everyones head. I apologize. But if you scroll up you will see that vanilla posted to this thread as well. vanilla posting = vanilla flavored toothpaste… get it now? I am just to obscure for my own good. ---

\ My toothpaste has finally run out. Finally, after two months, I’m ready to buy a new tube. Which will it be? Stay tuned! 😃 Esprix ---

OK, drumroll please… The selected toothpaste of the 2002 Choose Esprix’s New Toothpaste contest is: **Rembrandt Plus Peroxide Gel Wintergreen!** Congratulations to **chukhung** for suggesting it first (and doing so much research), and **jinwicked** for seconding it. Don’t think I didn’t give the runners up any consideration. **Colgate Cavity Protection Winterfresh Gel** was an early favorite, but I really wanted the baking soda & peroxide combo to help me fight off the occassional canker sore (it does seem to help to a degree). Alas, there wasn’t any **Tom’s of Maine Wintermint** at this particular store, but, again, the lure of the peroxide was calling me anyway. Now, **Pepsodent** , at a mere $0.77 :eek: was a surprise come-from-behind entry, but, in the final wash, wanting that peroxide put **Rembrandt** in the winner’s circle. Now I’ve tried it, and it has the taste I like. However, it’s got a peroxide _aftertaste_ I’m not fond of, so when I use up this tube (and of course I got the “50% more free” tube for $7 - that stuff is expensive toothpaste!), I think I may go ahead and try the other suggestions here. For the record, **Q.N. Jones** , I should point out that I actually did try Crest Multi-Care Cool Mint, and it is not in any way wintergreen flavored. Your entry is outcast - for shame! ( 😉 ) Thank you all for your help in this matter. I love you all! Truly! I brush my teeth for you! (On another note, I bought a brand spankin’ new toothbrush to go with it, which is really keen, except that the handle is too fat to fit into my toothbrush holder. ☹ ) Esprix ---
