@antoinetheman shameless plug 😉 but have you seen http://bitetoothpastebits.com ?

@antoinetheman Agree with you. This should be trending big time because this is a huge deal. Major brands working together to help reduce single plastic use. This kind of initiative can help change the world.

@antoinetheman @asher_hunt Interesting toothpaste but not in my budget. x.x

@magnuson I'm not sure I understand the logic of that. So toxic mainstream brands should also continue to use single-use plastic containers? It seems to me that unless the toxic mainstream brands are going out of business, at least they can stop using single-use plastics. Not to mention, a service like this will probably only survive if it has mainstream brands on board. A boutique specialty brand service won't have enough appeal or impact to be worthwhile or profitable long-term.

@magnuson I hear you there. But @iconifyit is correct too, we need major brands on board for widespread adoption, and the biggest impact.

@magnuson @kate_pate I should have made clear that I agree with the "fewer toxic brands" overall. My wife and I buy only animal and eco-friendly brands of everything possible. My comment is really about the practical matter. Unfortunately, the majority of the consumer public isn't as conscientious whether out of apathy, lack of awareness, or affordability. Any way the situation can be improved is a positive, IMO. But apologies, Charles. I didn't mean to sound argumentative or critical of your comment.
