…to a reasonable degree, at least.
Ingredients. Who the fuck cares if your bread has a pretty pattern on the packaging or not, you’re gonna turn it into shit. Minmax your groceries.
Toothbrush. Anything you’ll use comfortably will do the job.
I have to disagree. A good electric toothbrush makes a big difference, personally.
Electric toothbrushes with the rotating head collect germs behind the brush head. Enjoy your tasty germ colonies…
It can, yes, but even a cheap toothbrush used properly will do the job. No need to buy brand name when the store brand will do.
Sonicare might be expensive but it leaves my teeth feeling cleaner. It’s like having that perfectly smooth clean feeling after a dentist visit every day. No way I’ll ever go back to manual scrubbing like some sort of troglodyte.
Same goes for toothpaste, apparently. I asked my dentist once, and according to her the type or brand doesn’t matter that much as long as it has fluoride in it.
We’ve been brainwashed by advertising to think that the paste and mouthwash are what matter. They help, yes, but brushing is what matters most. The toothbrush is not just an applicator.
That said, I personally find Sensodyne to work better than other brand’s product for sensitive teeth.
as long as it has fluoride in it.
that’s the standard dentist answer for that question, except when you ask the 10th one
A lot of basic foods, for instance: tuna, Pop Tarts(toaster pastries), Frozen Veg, Dry Pasta.
The store brands are so much cheaper and often higher quality.
Don’t know about the rest but canned tuna has an enormous taste difference. Try a good 10 USD can!
It’s depressing that most responses ITT ignore sustainable or compostable products that can cost a bit more. Also super depressing that people are going with the cheapest ultra-processed food options. Seriously people, you’ve got to take better care of yourselves.
Disagree on tuna and especially for Pasta.
For pasta if you want to have a bite to it (al-dente) and not become soft you need to get a good quality one. Doesn’t need to be a lot expensive, but typically Italian ones are safer in this front. Better ones are bronze extruded as it leaves the surface that is porous. If that is not important to you, then ignore:)
I envy y’all with more versatile skin. Mine would turn to rash on the wrong brand.
