I once saw fruity flavoured toothpaste and cannot wrap my head around how your mouth can possibly feel clean after that

Aren't those for children, like for building habits and shit

You know what, that makes a lot more sense

I assumed it was for people who were sensitive to mint

I had a strawberry flavored one as a kid and holy fuck it was so horrible, it made my whole mouth cringe so much >v< but The Adults™ kept saying that mint is the bad one and no it's not??? and if it was so bad y even were they using it??? X3 so one time at the dentist they were cleaning my teeth and let me choose mint or strawberry as usual and I thought mint couldn't possibly be worse so I chose that for once and yup, it was fine :P

I wonder if I can find some in bubblegum flavor...

But does the taste liner after washing your mouth? Especially with a mouth wash? Listerine mint ones has quite a strong taste so I would imagine that won't be a problem.

We used to have chocolate and bubblegum flavored toothpaste sold unironically to adults. I guess people had really bad oral hygiene then
