Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Colgate's Comeback

      Who has the least to conceal 
        is willing to bare all

      His counterpart protects
        his teeth and tongue with ‘Gardol’*




     *Its technical name is sodium lauroyl
       sarcosinate, aka 'Advance White,'
       a popular Colgate product today -- 
       this century's version of 'good old 
       Gardol!'

Valsa George February 9, 2025 at 3:39 AM Colgate is popular in India too. That has been our brand for long. Enjoyed your witty writing.

Michael Tor February 5, 2025 at 12:48 AM Witty my friend you are the thinking gal or guy writer. How did I get in? lol

Regina Elliott February 4, 2025 at 4:38 PM Hi Gershon, another "brilliant white write," lol! You have a neat way with words. The only bad thing about teeth whiteners is they can make the enamel more sensitive. Have a cozy and warm February evening. Shalom :)

Chris Conn February 4, 2025 at 1:34 AM What are the odds that someone named Colgate would invent a toothpaste?
