    By doing this they have effectively secured their survival. We will never stop growing them.

      Unfortunately.

      I hate mint, it’s been put into WAY too much damn stuff, and is 98% of toothpaste flavors. It took me way to long to find a toothpaste that was JUST cinnamon not “Cinnamon-mint” or “minty cinnamon” or “Cinnamon with a BLAST of mint” just plain cinnamon.

          It’s called CloseUp, I’ve found it in most US grocery stores although it’s usually shoved to the bottom shelf

          I love mint, but cinnamon toothpaste is absolutely god-tier.

        Me, too. I haaaaaate mint toothpaste.

        Just discovered coconut ginger toothpaste a little over a year ago. I’m sticking with this toothpaste for life.

        I like mint in general but hate mint toothpaste, try children’s toothpaste, it often comes without mint.

        There is esoteric toothpaste that has no mint due to it blocking homeopathy. It is otherwise identical.

          Wow. The practitioners of a dumb pseudoscience are even dumber than expected? Who’d’ve thunk?

      The other thing their evolution has done is make it so we can’t stop it growing lol. Never ever plant that stuff in anything but a container. Maybe not even that. It spreads by wind and magic.

        You are NOT kidding!

        I’ve got a stubborn patch of mint growing in a big ceramic pot with an endangered dune cactus, and they get left to fend for themselves 24/7-365 outdoors at a beach cottage… in New England!

        Both plants have thrived in their pot for nearly two decades now!
