Toothpaste made in Europe at the German Supermarket

Today I went to my local supermarket and was presented with the following brands of toothpaste:

  • Odol-med3 (Aquafresh): Haleon Group ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง
  • Sensodyne: Haleon Group ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง
  • Parodontax: Haleon Group ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง
  • Signal: Unilever ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง
  • elmex: Colgate-Palmolive ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Meridol: Colgate-Palmolive ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Colgate: Colgate-Palmolive ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Blend-a-med: Procter & Gamble ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Blend-a-dent: Procter & Gamble ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Crest: Procter & Gamble ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
  • Lacalut: Dr. Theiss Naturwaren Gruppe ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช

You have a big illusion of choice, but in the end most known brands that can also afford advertising are big international groups. I ended up getting Lacalut, the one "made in germany", which cost double.

edit: apparently it's not a great choice for many reasons, so i'll be returning that product and try some of the other recommendations, thanks!
