We've all had the experience: A great meal, lingering flavors, and something stuck between your teeth. What is it?
A caroway seed, a sprig of dill? It's certainly not a red pepper seed.
Tear the protective cover off of a Polaroid Toothpick, wedge it into the place where the unknown leftover is,
and sit with your lips and teeth parted for a brief period of time to expose the multi-layer media package at the toothpick's tip.
Then remove the pick, and wave it in the air for a minute or so. Then look at the tiny image and you'll have a clue as to what that remnant of your meal is.

Is your endoscope in for repairs? |

Many years ago I wrote here a very similar idea of the late and
very troubled Yogev Ukashi, just after he had committed
suicide. |
|
| |
Looking back I found that I had posted a different idea of his,
and not the one with a camera. |
|
| |
The reason for that was that at the time I thought it was
impossible to attach a camera to a toothpick. |
|
| |
I would think it would be very simple to attach a camera to a toothpick, just use sticky tape or an elastic band. |

Polaroid film is increasingly difficult to get these
days (at least the type 100 packfilm format is
anyway), there is a boutique company in Vienna who
still
make it, but it's f-ing expensive. |

Is there such a thing as an auto-dental periscope? |
|
| |
I must have not communicated clearly. This would be akin to a contact print. If there was any lens involved, it would be a slight bubble on the top layer of the media package. |
