This is a classic Colgate print ad. As seen on Flickr. Who remembers Tuffy Tooth?

    I’m pretty sure I got that exact kit as a little kid, and let me tell you the little plastic hand-puppet (second from the right) was pretty disappointing.

    See those little red pills on the left next to the button? You’d chew those up and they’d show the plaque on your teeth, which you could then study with the little mirror. I can practically remember what they tasted like…

    Those are some memories I didn’t ever expect to be having ever again…

    I remember Tuffy! I had a storybook about him.

    Just like Andrew I remember all that stuff as well. They made a big deal out of it and came around to each classroom.

    Other note: Everyone thought the MFP was some special something added to make it better. What BS. :)
