There’s like an urge in my body to squeeze it from the bottom that feels efficient and tidy and it messes my mind up when I use a toothpaste that somebody has squeezed right in the middle. I wanna know people’s stance on this, so what kinda squeezer are you?

    I squeeze from the top or middle because that’s where I grab it from but I have a plastic toothpaste roller that flattens and pushes it up from the bottom that I adjust as I go. It’s truly the best of all worlds

    I’m a random squeezer up until near the end, then I roll up from the bottom.

    There’s something so satisfying about when it seems empty and you push your fiber up and force more out.

    Everyone does it different in my house so once a week I redistribute the paste in the tube so it’s all at the top. It’s very satisfying to do and I feel like I have all the power when it’s all said and done.

    From the middle. But, I occasionally pull the bottom along the corner of the sink counter, squeezing it back up, and then roll the bottom so it stays “like full.”

    What? pre coffee… I can’t be bothered to care.

    Does it even matter any more? Tooth paste tubes used to be made of metal so if you squeezed from the bottom they would hold their shape and you could roll them up as you used them.

    Now they’re all made of plastic and as soon as you put them down they expand to their original shape and the tooth paste flows back into the empty areas. The world is just going to absolute shite! :)

    I do it the right way. Push from the seal towards the opening until there are only like two brush-worths left, then I fold the sides by the opening to get those last drops.
