Gum, Mints or au natural?

Molly · The Mediator

I always keep gum or mints on me. I have these terrible cinnamon Listerine strips in my wallat that I keep 'just in case.' I also have gum in my drawer at work, and in the glovebox of my car.

Gum is easier to keep around but I don't chew it that often. I also keep the Listerine strips around but I do the orange ones.

mints.

when them strips first came out I didn't know how thin they were and that they sorta stuck together. I think I popped four in my mouth. that hurt.

I don't like the cinnamon ones, they don't taste right. But, they were on sale, so I thought I'd try them...

I guess there is such a thing as too

Glad that you mouth recovered JD.

yea, the hospital had to do a skin graph, and food tastes a bit different, but they say before decades end, I should have 80% of my taste buds back if the swelling goes down.

Good. Because then you will enjoy the true taste of beer again.

By the way, are you feeling any better today?

JD The Jazz Doctor · Grand Poobah

yea I am ok, thanks for asking. I never actually felt down and out sick, more just irritated that the nose is either stuffy or runny, cough sounds like there's a broken plastic piece in my throat rattling around...but I am doin ok!

I got these zinc GUMBALLS (instead of losenges) and I would say that they do work.

I've got a phobia about this. Once I forgot to brush my teeth before I went to work. I had to go shopping & get the following items: toothbrush, toothpaste, 2 kinds of gum, a pack of Tic-Tacs, a pack of Breath Savers, a pack of Ice Breakers & a bottle of mouthwash. Ugh! That idea gives me the shivers.

MzHartz · Permanent Vacation

I carry a toothbrush and toothpaste with me too! And I almost always have a bottle of water in my car. There have been several times where I was going somewhere and worried about my breath, so I've brushed my teeth in the car...
