" I know, sounds kind of strange, doesn&amp;#x27;t it? So I was at the drug store recently stocking up on toothpaste when I stumbled upon cranberry floss. Being a fan of cranberries, I tossed some in my cart. Read on for my take on this kind-of-strange find...**** I&amp;#x27;ve never met a cranberry I didn&amp;#x27;t like, so when I discovered Cranberry Floss from a company called Radius, I was intrigued. The floss is coated with pure, unsweetened cranberry &amp;quot;essence.&amp;quot; According to the package, &amp;quot;natural phytochemicals in cranberries have been shown to stop bacteria attaching to the teeth, the first step in the formation of plaque, the source of pathogens that cause gingivitis and periodontal disease.&amp;quot; I&amp;#x27;ve been using the floss for the past week, and while it does taste a wee bit tart, you&amp;#x27;d be hard pressed to detect any real cranberry flavor. Darn! As for the health benefits, however, I&amp;#x27;m not convinced that this floss is going to ward off gingivitis any better than your fave minty variety, but hey, if it gets you to floss more (which it&amp;#x27;s done for me!), why not? More on oral health from Vitamin G here. Speaking of floss, doesn&amp;#x27;t it feel good? I&amp;#x27;m going to sound like a serious geek here, but I love it. I think it feels really invigorating--like a massage for your mouth. You too? Photo: Radius"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
