Twiglets turn 80

Move over Mr. Obama. There's not enough room for the both of us on November 20th. Twiglets turned 80 years young today. Happy birthday.

It’s happy 80th birthday to Twiglets! This great British snack has been a favourite since its launch in 1929, gracing the tables of office parties and birthday celebrations for 80 years conjuring up nostalgic party memories. Now it’s time to throw Twiglets its own birthday bash and celebrate this long standing knobbly snack icon of Britain!

Ever since Monsieur Rondalin created this delicious knobbly shaped snack whilst experimenting with crispbread back in the 1920s, the nation has been crunching. Twiglets have stood the test of time, with its distinctive flavour remaining unchanged, after all if people are still enjoying the taste after 80 years, why change it?

Less than 100 calories!

But the reason to celebrate doesn’t stop there. As well as being the ultimate British party food, Twiglets are a healthier alternative to other everyday savoury snacks. Each 25g bag contains only 96 calories and has less than 3 grams of fat, plus they are baked, not fried. Twiglets are also a great source of fibre, as each 25g pack contains 41% of your wholegrain GDA, so you’re guaranteed a whole lot of goodness too!"

Add some savoury crunch to your lunch!

If you're looking for a healthier snack to eat on the go or want to add some crunch to your lunch, Twiglets can be enjoyed at anytime, not just party time. Twiglets Multipacks contain six 25g packs (perfect for lunchboxes), or 45g handy packs to fill that bigger hunger gap and if you're celebrating, why not share the Twiglets joy with a 150g sharing bag? link

Not booze, not fags, not dope, not girls, not graeverobbing, just Twiglets (and a fizzy soft drink that looks a bit like wee). From Metro,

Is fame bringing lots of female attention?

Why? Have you heard anything from Kylie Minogue? Don't start any rumours. Just 'cos I said she had nice yellow hair once. My mum's always asking when I'm going to bring a nice girl back, but I've no time for that; I've got to think about showbiz.

No drink and drugs then?

Lucozade and Twiglets, that's my weakness. Christmas a few years ago, mum said: 'Try this.' It was sherry. Dead little glass, like an egg cup. I didn't even drink it, it just touched my lips and I fell over. Woke up three days later in Wythenshawe Hospital. I missed Return Of The Jedi and Indiana Jones on the telly. link
