For people who bulk buy everything, I haven't seen a bulk toothpaste dispenser. Caulking gun products are widely availiable, why not have a toothpaste catridge. Infinitely better than a dipping into a paint tin of toothpaste.

Tha taste of old, stale toothpaste can be quite bad. If you're not using the toothpase on an army of people, then the bargain for purchasing in bulk turns into a bad taste in your mouth.

Its because toothpaste tastes better fresh ... but it could just be my brand of tooth cleaner

So this isn't McCauley Caulking toothpaste, for when you're home alone?.....

I would scream if that were a real product

I'd get a kick outta' using a caulking gun in the morning. Don't make it any smaller! It's almost like those guys who shave witha knive. If I wasa guy that is the kind I'd be.

futurebird - you could use a knife to shave your legs...

Not for long.

"caulk full of anything" looks like that covers everything. Fantastic. The big rusty nail you put in the end to stop it going off will have to be re-engineered.

Cat in a blender then poured into a caulking tube? Would have to put a use by date on that one. I could blend all my food and dispense it from caulking tubes! Hope I don't accidentally eat adhesive (wouldn't be the first time, mmmm perkins paste...).

//Hope I don't accidentally eat adhesive //

Or end up with a minty-fresh tub, for that matter.

great for disagreeable kids that don't want to brush, make it especially horrible to taste and the time taken to regurgitate, spit and finger the toothpaste out would last minutes... long enough to constitute as a cleaning teeth.

You would'nt need to have a full caulk-tube of toothpaste - just sell them 1/8 full. I gess it would eliminate the econmic reason.

According to Crest, the shelf life of toothpaste is three years. This would be very bakeable (for large families).
