Mint flavoring was added to toothpaste as a strategy by Pepsodent to make their toothpaste more appealing because it masked the flavor of other ingredients and the cooling sensation became associated with freshness. It became the default toothpaste flavor, but really you can flavor it any way you want.

I once got a gift set of these mini toothpastes in assorted flavors.

    It's a crime that yellow isn't banana flavored

    Edit my take on what they should be left to right: Banana, candy corn, bubblegum, watermelon, blue raspberry, sour apple

    This is like when you get horny for a certain type of porn and then you do the business and feel shame after.

    Can’t decide if the fact it exist or that it’s in Australasia and not America that’s surprised me the most.

    That's absolutely disgusting. I brush my teeth to get rid of the shame of eating that crap.

    I had to switch to cinnamon toothpaste and floss, because my cat likes mint. Fortunately he does not like cinnamon.

    You should put the toothpaste somewhere the cat can't get into, like a drawer or medicine cabinet. Same with your toothbrush, and anything else in the bathroom that goes into your mouth. Airborne poop particles land on everything. You'll be doing yourself two favors in one.
