Toothpicks probably aren't something you spend a lot of time thinking about—they're cheap and they remove food from your teeth and it's about as simple as that. However, Castor is changing the toothpick experience with its 'Double Flavored Gourmet Toothpick,' that delivers not one, but two hits of flavor in the process.
The stick part of Castor toothpicks provide a long-lasting, aromatic flavor, while the colorful, dipped powdered tips really pack an initial punch. Some of the flavors are unusual, but highly interesting combinations like Raspberry & Wasabi, Marshmallow & Smoke and Sake & Blueberry. However, if there's one thing from the old toothpick experience that remains, it's the price of the Castor toothpicks, which remain just as reasonable as ever.
Adventurous taste-testers can try out some of these wild toothpick flavors by supporting Castor's Kickstarter campaign.
