Been wanting to try this. Would love to wake up with a licorice taste in the morning. Might give it a go!
I need a new toothpaste. Something unique.

Myth.
http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/household/toothpastemarkings.asp
[The squares are] an artifact of the manufacturing process known as "eye marks" or "color marks," printed marks that can be read by light beam sensors and typically identify where product packaging is to be cut or folded as connected units stream through machinery at high speed: Eye mark: A printed rectangular mark most often found along the edge of webstock that can be identified by an electric eye. The mark identifies a point on the web where an individual package is to be cut.
The colors of eye mark registers are not limited to the ones mentioned above (and may not necessarily be visible on the finished product), and the different colors simply signify different types of packaging or different types of sensors.
The best way to ascertain the composition of a given brand of toothpaste is by reading the ingredients information printed on the toothpaste box and/or tube.
Anyway, I promise you that everything everywhere is made entirely of chemicals, even the most natural things you can think of.
If you believe Pharma industry 
I am sure that 99% of all stuff is chemistry. The point is that the entry of toxins reduced to a minimum.

If you want to avoid certain ingredients, the squares will not help you at all. If you want to end up with the unwanted ingredients in your mouth, the best way to do that is to depend on the squares that are put there to tell the machine where to cut the tube. The ingredients list is where you'll find the ingredients listed.
Smallflower sent me an email yesterday, they are featuring some oral care products this week. There's some pretty unique stuff in there to choose from. Check it out at http://www.smallflower.com/face-oral-care/toothpastes-cleansers

The mother load! Thank you!
I took the leap and tried Marvis. Very unique and it seems to get hooked into you where you need to have that unique refreshing taste. Well worth trying IMO. Thanks to all posters on recommending it. And thanks to you Jason for starting this thread. Now back to our regular programming.
I actually saw it in Melbourne a few weeks back, but didn't think to pick it up. It was a place in the CBD, but couldn't tell you the name of the place.
I'm not worried about cavities either. I've got fillings in every one of my teeth
I guess you just proved my point then.....lol
Yes it is definitely more abrasive. As for flavours I've never really looked into it but I will when I have some time.
Thank-you for the facts.....there are way too many myths taken as truth these days and rapidly spread across social media. I also find "natural" ingredient arguments funny. Last time I checked snake venom, poison ivy, hepatitis C etc were all natural and I don't think they are very good for us either. There are harmful and beneficial chemicals of both the natural and synthetic variety.

Yup. Congrats.
Also an option.
Colgate tooth powder is available in metal packing where I live, but the unusual one is the Dabur tooth powder.
It is red in colour, quite astringent, and supposedly herbal. The last is probably true as Dabur is a well known herbal brand.
There is a black tooth powder one as well, by another brand.

No, this came in a small brown bottle. I'm pretty sure the country of origin was Switzerland, and I'm pretty sure I got it at C&E.
I've asked for it in C&E stores ever since, but they have no idea what I'm talking about. Then again, whenever I ask them if their Sweet Almond Oil Shaving Cream is going to make a come-back, they go "Huh? Never heard of it."
I am currently working on a tube of Pasta del Capitano from Italy. Before that, I used Tom's of Maine Peppermint toothpaste. The ToM doesn't contain fluoride. It just doesn't really have a taste. Pasta del Capitano has a strong mint taste and maybe a licorice note? I bought it at Bull goose.
Euthymol: all natural essential oils, century old formula. Fantastic performance and flavor; tastes like super intense Pepsodent.
Vicco Vajradanti Toothpaste: Ayurvedic toothpaste. great stuff from India.
Comes in paste and powder, too

OK gents! Thank you all for the replies.
I went with
Ordered today. It was between this or Colgate tooth powder. I went with this because the tooth powder was coming from India and I need it ASAP.
Never seen this in any stores where I live either. I'll probably order the powder eventually.
Thanks!
