Dear Sammy:
I'm told that one of the secret ingredients in toothpaste is a small amount of one particular
chemical that helps clean your teeth. Know what it does? For a short period of time after brushing
your teeth, it keeps the taste buds in your mouth from sensing any sweet taste. For some reason,
the chemical doesn't turn off bitter or sour tastes just sweet. So your taste buds sense only a
portion of the variety of tastes that make orange juice so delicious. The good news is that it
doesn't take long for the chemical's effect to disappear -- and then o.j. tastes deliciously sweet
and satisfying all over again!
Signed,
Wendell
