I recently found out about this new toothpaste that is a plastic-free alternative. There are bite-sized capsules that you start chewing on that start to foam up and turn into a "traditional" toothpaste texture. Here is the "About" page that explains how this woman come up with the idea; great ingenuity! Haven't tried them yet but am excited to see how they work.
