You're a man after my mom's heart, Jerry! She advocated using your finger if you had absolutely nothing else. Remember, the apple is called "Nature's toothbrush." And even city folks can probably find a twig and bash its end so it splays out into a brush.

To brush your teeth, right??? What did she recommend as a substitute for, um, bath tissue???

I honestly can't recall what we substituted...

But I'm pretty sure it wasn't a handful of gravel.
