So I was just eating a Twix, and we get those stupid multipacks of one finger ones, what's the point?! one finger just isn't enough, i always end up eating two, so does one finger satisfu you or just leave you wanting more?

OMG... my mind needs to be cleansed...

And I'd hope one finger isn't enough, cos you'd have trouble with me otherwise :p

And yes, I need more than one as well ;)

a twix is a two finger thing, on principle if you eat one, you must eat another

If I got a multipack of one finger ones, i'd eat the entire pack...

So no. :p

It's food, so I'm happy either way

To answer your question, I'm not a big Twix fan, so one can be enough. Though it also depends if I've been eating anything else before, of course...

But is it not said that "A finger of fudge is just enough to give your kids a treat"?

(Or at least it was, in more innocent times. It truly was a confectionary advertising slogan...)

On the other hand, I think it was alka-seltzer sales that practically doubled overnight when they adopted the 'plink plink fizz' slogan and started to package them in pairs (because consumers unconciously started to think in terms of needing two at a time...).

How that relates to the old "if you cut the cake in half, you have only half the calories. Which means you can then eat twice as much!" joke (whereby the whole cake is eaten either way) I've no idea... ;)

Again, I suppose it's so you get more of them. So you think you're eating less, but you actually eating (and spending) more. They're devious, I tell you. ;) Just stick to the normal-size ones that you can take your time to enjoy.

/me carefully constructs a fist made entirely out of Twix bars and punches TIN in the face with it, apparently surprised when it simply falls to pieces.

It's fun for the Mars company. They make more money, because you have to buy more of them to actually notice that you've eaten something.

/letdown :( Me too.

So I'll just answer the question I thought was posted anyway:
I say one finger can be enough... just one is more agile, and can better reach a certain spot... So, it's not how many, it's how they're used. But for certain outer features, 2 are definitely better!

As for Twix? I think one might be better... it'd force to you appreciate it more, and not rush through munching on it thinking there's always a second one anyway!

I think this wins with the dirtiest apparently clean comment of the bunch. I nearly choked on my Wild Cherry Pepsi.

As an answer to the question I don't even buy the two-finger packages one at a time.

My girlfriend is annoyingly hard to satisfy... she sometimes need three, even four fingers. And she can't just take them one at a time, oh no. She has to have them all at once.
