toothpaste

Dan and I went to buy more toothpaste from a large, international chain supermarket. Dan's favorite toothpaste is Colgate total, so we bought two boxes with tubes of the toothpaste. That evening, we opened up one of the boxes and pulled out a tube of toothpaste, not colgate, but Crest. And not only was it Crest toothpaste in a Colgate box, but it was a mossy greenish color. I looked at the tube and in Chinese, it said it was what I think is "herb flavor" tooth paste. It has a sweet and grassy flavor, which isn't necessarily unpleasant, but I think I would prefer a more minty flavor. To double check, we opened up the second box, and it did indeed contain Colgate total toothpaste. I wonder. Does this prove that all toothpaste is secretly made in the same place owned by some shadowy international toothpaste conglomorate? Now I'm guessing that just might be the case.
