I absolutely LOATHE the taste of peppermint. So my sister giftet me a matcha toothpaste (it does not taste like matcha but it’s still a good taste). They put that „cold-burning“ stuff in there that peöpermint bormally has, and it BUUUURNS. It doesn’t taste like peopermint though so I still use it, but is this normal??? like my mouth feels so cold afterwards, why do people like this feeling 💀
Maybe I can use the pain I feel while brushing my theeth as inspiration for my art 😝

Don’t worry, I love peppermint, I’ll protect you all by eating all the peppermint ever
NO SAME I hate using peppermint toothpaste and I’ll only use it as a last option. The only alternative seems to be kids toothpaste but that’s good enough for me (as long as it’s not mint I’m cool with it)
I’m super sensitive to mint and it also burns me. I feel like sometimes they put the “burn” even if the flavor doesn’t call for mint. I had to find a flavor free toothpaste so I wouldn’t be burned.
i have to use flouride free healthy toothpaste cos mint flavours make me vomit 🙁 my current toothpaste is grapefruit flavour n it’s from some naturalist company
Many toothpastes "cold-burn". The only toothpastes I've had that don't as much have been kids toothpastes and especially mild toothpastes that, in turn, have a weird watered down taste.

Idk if or why people like it. Personally I don't love it but it does make my mouth feel more clean than weird watery tasting mild toothpaste


I am severely tired as I'm writing this so sorry if anything ends up incoherent
Finaly I am not the only one T.T I hate perpemint cause how it made me feel
