Kommiekat Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I must confess, I dig the stuff. Not like I'm going to eat it like it was astronaut food in the tube, but it sure beats American fluoride crappaste. I have a habit if buying toothpaste from every country I visit and have found Korean, Chinese and Thai to be some of the best non-fluoride paste around. And, it doesn't leave a bad taste after brushing. At the moment, I am switching between these two: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Only use Amway and maybe herbal if you like having gums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maccaroni man Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 My wife pointed out that the tube will indicate how much chemical is in the paste. A black mark down the middle indicates mostly chemical there is a blue and green line too. Most of mine are black lined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 (edited) That one on the left, "Twin Lotus?", is OK; I wouldn't use it every day as it seems to have industrial abrasive/grit properties. I am pretty sure it could remove the paint from any surface. Edited August 29, 2013 by lomatopo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nisakiman Posted August 29, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2013 My favourite is 'Darlie', or 'Darkie' as it used to be called, before the Thais realised that the name was pretty much internationally non-PC! I think they also changed the logo of a guy in a top hat from black to white. Funny old thing, this political correctness. I wonder who put pressure on the company to make the change? Or if they would have done so if the toothpaste had been called 'Falang' instead of 'Darkie'? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or if they would have done so if the toothpaste had been called 'Falang' instead of 'Darkie'? A lot of my Thai friends still call it Darkie. I think the logo is still supposed to be a black guy, but he looks a lot nicer now. The old logo was pretty bad... big lips, beady eyes, all that. It's actually made in Taiwan, and sold in lots of Asian countries, so that might have had to do with the name change. Pretty good toothpaste, though, and cheap. I use it all the time.

Dancealot Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 (edited) I am on systemA Icy. Very interesting habit, Kommiekat. I agree with your non-Fluoride attitude.

chrisinth Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Thai toothpaste is great as long as you can read Thai. Personally, I stick to Colgate. I have found there is not a lot worse than waking up hazy eyed in the morning and accidently picking up the pile cream instead of the toothpaste................ Only have the one bathroom cabinet........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infinity11 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 There was an old darkie TV commercial someone sent me by email, worth seeing what the motion picture ad was like that went along with the said 'copy.' (before they went PC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asian manufacturers can still use additives and substances that are no longer acceptable in Australia, EU, USA etc. Thai labelling is not necessarily reliable and nor is Thai safety vigilance on medicines and health related products world class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khun Ngo Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 I use the one on the right side, it's the best. The one on left as fluoride in it. Before I used SALZ, which is pretty good but also with fluoride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bina Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 the salty one with herbs in it is the best ive ever used. found something similar in israel that hubby will use. no colgate and stuff for us as my sis is allergic to ingredietns in many of those 'american' style toothpastes.... its some preservative in it that causes the reaciton , so i decided to change... besides thai toothpaste isnt cloying sweet..
