Advice for anyone who plans to visit or study in Japan: Bring your own floss. I ran out of the pack I brought from home, and it took me weeks before I found any here. I was desperate, so I paid the 500 yen ($5!!!!!) for the one pack.
One interesting thing, though. I looked at the packaging, and the labels on the back indicated that the packaging could be separated into paper and recyclable plastic.
With American packaging in mind, I thought, “Great, how am I going to separate the paper and plastic without making it all ugly?” I tried to peel the plastic part from the cardboard part and then
the plastic just cleanly popped off on its own. That moment was the most amazing experience I had that week.
Um. Dude you don't need to floss if you brush your teeth. It's one or the other. Not both. Or mouthwash. But you only need ONE.
