I've always wondered how they get the toothpaste into the tube -- even if it is a really big tube. Big Tube. Hee hee. You aren't going to file harassment a complaint now, are you? I mean, it's totally okay if you like to orally pleasure other men. Really. But, you know, it is a big tube. I'm going to go back to playing Bejewelled now.

In this final step, the cars are conveyed backwards past this giant suction device that removes the white substance from the roof. I'm afraid the composition, origin, and purpose of the white substance are proprietary. And by 'proprietary' I mean 'too disturbing to contemplate.'
