Get this in an email. Investigating Dollar Stores

Tweet

A news investigation on dollar stores, including Dollar Tree and others, discovered the Crest, Colgate and other brand name toothpastes weren't the same as from drug, and grocery stores. The toothpastes were manufactured in many other countries and are not approved by the American Dental Association (ADA). There was even some from South Africa and the fluoride is ten times stronger than what we're allowed in the U.S. (prescription strength). They're allowed stronger because they don't have fluoridated water like we do. So if we or our kids use it often and occasionally swallow it, we could be poisoning ourselves. The dollar stores declined to comment and a full investigation has begun. So stick to paying full price at your grocery store, drug store, and send this e-mail to anyone who MIGHT shop at dollar stores. This is a true story it has been confirmed read below: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/household/toothpaste.asp This is also true of food products, cake mixes, cereal, etc.
