Dear Dr. Sheffield:
You are one of many purveyors of charcoal toothpaste. It’s all the rage right now.
In theory, charcoal toothpaste sounds great: Charcoal can remove surface stains.
In practice, charcoal toothpaste is not so great. (Warning: shocking image follows.)
Yeah, that’s my mouth. Too close to Meth Mouth for my taste.
(That is NOT my mouth.)
Your toothpaste makes not only my mouth a mess, but also the sink and my toothbrush.
Gross. Of course, I always clean the sink afterward. That’s just proper briquettiquette. (Har har!)
Your product also has a weird absinthe-y aftertaste.
And so far, I haven’t noticed any difference.
I’m too cheap thrifty conscientious to throw it out, but I will be glad when this experiment is over.
Coally yours,
Beth
