By doing this they have effectively secured their survival. We will never stop growing them.

Unfortunately.

I hate mint, it's been put into WAY too much damn stuff, and is 98% of toothpaste flavors. It took me way to long to find a toothpaste that was JUST cinnamon not "Cinnamon-mint" or "minty cinnamon" or "Cinnamon with a BLAST of mint" just plain cinnamon.

It's called CloseUp, I've found it in most US grocery stores although it's usually shoved to the bottom shelf

Tigers love pepper. They hate cinnamon.

There is esoteric toothpaste that has no mint due to it blocking homeopathy. It is otherwise identical.

Wow. The practitioners of a dumb pseudoscience are even dumber than expected? Who'd've thunk?

[–] Gladaed@feddit.de 0 points 2 years ago

How is the validity of pseudoscience relevant to mint free toothpaste?

The other thing their evolution has done is make it so we can't stop it growing lol. Never ever plant that stuff in anything but a container. Maybe not even that. It spreads by wind and magic.
