A spirited new translation of a forgotten classic, shot through with timeless wisdom
Is there an art to drinking alcohol? Can drinking ever be a virtue? The Renaissance humanist and neoclassical poet Vincent Obsopoeus (ca. 1498-1539) thought so. In the winelands of sixteenth-century Germany, he witnessed the birth of a poisonous new culture of bingeing, hazing, peer pressure, and competitive drinking. Alarmed, and inspired by the Roman poet Ovid's Art of Love, he wrote The Art of Drinking (De Arte Bibendi) (1536), a how-to manual for drinking with pleasure and discrimination. In How to Drink, Michael Fontaine offers the first proper English translation of Obsopoeus's text, rendering his poetry into spirited, contemporary prose and uncorking a forgotten classic that will appeal to drinkers of all kinds and (legal) ages. Arguing that moderation, not abstinence, is the key to lasting sobriety, and that drinking can be a virtue if it is done with rules and limits, Obsopoeus teaches us how to manage our drinking, how to win friends at social gatherings, and how to give a proper toast. But he also says that drinking to excess on occasion is okay--and he even tells us how to win drinking games, citing extensive personal experience. Complete with the original Latin on facing pages, this sparkling work is as intoxicating today as when it was first published.Binding Type: Hardcover

Twice a day
Style: Bubblegum Fluoride
Took a few brushing sessions for our toddlers to not hate the bubblegum flavor. Understandable though since she's never experienced that flavor before. Teeth look clean after using, just hope that they actually are.

Misleading Advertising and Flavor Discrepancy
I recently tried this toothpaste, and I have to say that my experience left me with mixed feelings. The product claims to be suitable for ages 2+, but the bottle itself states "ages 3+," which is a clear discrepancy that could mislead parents.
One of the most disappointing aspects of this toothpaste is its flavor. Despite being marketed as "Marshmallow Sparkle," it does not taste like marshmallows at all. Instead, it has a sweet mint flavor, which may not be well-received by children who were expecting a marshmallow taste. This flavor discrepancy can lead to confusion and disappointment for both parents and kids.
On a positive note, the toothpaste is fluoride-based, which is essential for cavity prevention. It is also vegan and dye-free, making it a safer option for kids. However, the misleading age recommendation and the flavor mismatch are significant drawbacks that should be addressed by the manufacturer.
