I am not sure if this has been posted or where to post it but I thought some of you would like to know this!!
DOLLAR STORE INVESTIGATION
Even if you don't buy things like this at the local Dollar Stores, you probably have someone on your email list that MIGHT so it is a good thing to pass along
Have a great week!
Holly
A news investigation on dollar stores (including
Dollar Tree and others)
They discovered the Crest, Colgate and other
brand name toothpastes weren't the same as from drug,
and grocery stores, etc. 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. (Use Wal-Mart instead)
This is a true story it has been confirmed read below

Be careful also of food products, cake mixes, cereal, etc.
