Misleading Adverts!

AIBU to be really annoyed my misleading adverts? Specifically this Colgate total proof toothpaste.

I saw the advert and thought it was a great idea - toothpaste that tells you how clean your teeth are!

The first time I used it there was hardly any change of colour. ‘Brilliant’ I thought, I have really clean teeth!

But being a sceptical old mare I thought I’d try it out. I didn’t brush my teeth for a whole week, and ate loads of Haribo and drink gallons of coke to build up a nice thick layer of plaque.

Guess what - the toothpaste hardly changed colour at all! How can these companies get away with these misleading advertisements!? £4 down the drain, and that’s a lot of money to me!

You didn’t brush your teeth for a week just to make a point about a toothbrush?

Haribo and copious amounts of coke cost more than that toothpaste Hmm
