This (prank) toothpaste looks like any other toothpaste with a green, minty strip inside the center. Within the green strip are tiny pieces of spinach, so as the user brushes away, the pieces of spinach are being mashed into the crevices of all their teeth.

Smile! You'd only use this once, so we'll make it in small travel size tubes. (unless you don't look in the mirror after brushing!)

       [bigsleep] what kind of humour is that?? oh well, I guess I'm the only one who thought this was funny. (not all ideas are good ones)

       I know of certain people who could bypass the spinach effect.   

       Just don't give spinach to a cat if it has urinary problems.Albeit, a green grinning cat.

       I thought it was funny. In the line of "gag" gift items. So +, but don't sneak any into my medicine cabinet, you little troll you!

       [xandram] I posted an idea some time ago called Teeth of Wisdom. Look it up. You might like it.

       You can get wasabi in toothpaste-style tubes. We used to prank dumb Americans just in from the states...

       [lurch] boy they sure were dumb - because all stores that carry Japanese foods have this! (in the US)

       Not labeled "Colgate", they don't.

       uhh... much as I hate to admit it, [xandram], this was 30 years ago. It (the tube pack, not the wasabi) was fairly new in Japan then, and hadn't gotten into many US stores yet.

       it's OK [lurch] I'm old too!!!! you are right, we didn't know much about wasabi wayyyy back then!
