Back from the beyond

Post – June 25, 2001

Apparently my new toothpaste, Colgate 2 in 1, is poison:
“If more than used for brushing is accidentally swallowed, get medical help or call a Poison Control Center right away.”

This is not a reassuring thing to see on the back of a package of something I put in my mouth every day.

    Most toothpaste tubes have that printed on them. I don’t believe it. I didn’t find out you weren’t actually supposed to swallow toothpaste until I was fourteen. I figure that fourteen years of swallowing fatal toothpaste would have done me in, so either the whole toothpaste as poison thing is a lie or I’ve built up an incredible immunity. To toothpaste. I wonder if this will serve me later in life.

    My deodorant says that too….very strange.
