Fluoridated Beer

Here in the City of San Francisco we are provided with fluoride (a toxic element) in our drinking water by the powers that be. A lot of research suggests it is a pointless exercise, in that we drink the water, not store it in our mouths. However, if in fact that fluoride is preventing cavities and not causing rising rates of autism, a dear reader we only know as KR has written in with a completely earth shattering idea:

“You need to invent fluoridated beer! Think of the marketing opportunities: toothbrush bottle-openers, mouthwash nips, beer can floss dispensers…”

I think a strong sales angle is that when a person vomits from intoxication, the fluoride will be given a second chance to coat the teeth. The tie-in market is huge, as KR has pointed out. Imagine how much fun it would be to go to the dentist if there was a bar in the waiting room and you were completely shit-faced by the time they call you in for your root canal!

I sat too long on another drink idea, the caffeinated donut. Sharp eyed reader DSM sent me this news flash.
