Fluoride Free Mint Toothpaste Tablets
Excellent disclosure and a real composting route. We call the sugarcane liner what it is, a bio-based plastic, and score accordingly.

About Unpaste
Unpaste is a toothpaste-tablet brand sold in the US, built around eliminating the roughly 400 million plastic toothpaste tubes thrown away in the country each year. You chew a tablet and then brush, and the pouches can be returned through a mail-back composting program.
The tablets come in fluoride and fluoride-free mint, and the compostable plant-based pouch is genuinely the lowest-plastic packaging in its category. The honest limitation is transparency: the company does not publish who founded it, what year, or where it operates, and it claims no third-party certification, so buyers are trusting an unnamed maker.
