Say what?! Come again!? Twix can be used as a straw!? Oh yes! Yes, Twix can be used as a straw! Not only will this making drinking milk (or chocolate milk) amazing, but it will also make the Twix delicious!

9. The Name Twix Has A Dope Meaning
Did you know that Twix were invented in the UK in 1967? Well, they were. In the United Kingdom there are many different names for things… The trunk of the car is the boot. The bathroom is the loo. Twix mean twin bix. What is a bix? Apparently, it is a short hand for biscuit and in this case cookie. So, that means that the name Twix technically means twin cookie. This is so cool! Doesn’t it make you look at the chocolate bar a little differently? Like, when you separate the pieces you have two identical pieces. Well, somewhat identical because no twin is exactly the same. There could be an epic video made of the twin cookie pieces being separated and then finding each other again! Maybe this has been done before? Maybe it is too real? Maybe we should not be personifying the chocolate bar that much… Either way, it is cool to know a little bit more history about the name of the chocolate bar! It can be pretty useful information if you want an ice breaker on a date. Picture this: you are on a first date at the cinema. You are sitting and waiting for the trailers to start. You are snacking on your popcorn and Twix and making small talk and then BAM! You whip out this information! You seem cute and funny and informed. You seem smart and cultured. It’s the little things that count! This one Twix fact could mark the difference between date number one and date number two! Don’t take facts for granted! People love them almost as much as they love Twix!
8. Left Twix VS Right Twix
Okay, okay, okay. Some of you may know about this already and some of you may not, but there is a huge portion of the internet devoted to talking about the Left Twix VS Right Twix debacle. What it is is an ad campaign that never truly took off that talks about the left side of the bar and the right side of the bar in a sort of sibling rivalry kind of way. At the end of the Left Twix VS Right Twix commercials the announcer asks viewers/eaters to pick a side, thereby putting you in camp with all of the other left or right siders. This would therefore create a rivalry within the Twix community. A fun – rather hilarious rivalry, but a rivalry none the less. Perhaps Twix figured that they would generate some fun publicity with this? Perhaps they asked this question themselves and wanted to bring it to the people, which kind of Twix eater where you? Which side were you most prone to eating? Another reason this Left Twix VS Right Twix thing took off for a very limited time and has continued to thrive on the web could be because of the inherent desire to pick sides, compare, and assemble with others while creating a divide. One very obvious example of this is the Edward VS Jacob debate. Twilight fans know what we are talking about here. So, the Edward VS Jacob debate generated some serious chatter amongst fans and it just so happens that this was going on in 2015 right around the time Twix was launching a Left Twix VS Right Twix campaign. So… there could be a connection there. Or there could not! We leave that one up to you!
