There are two situations in which food is always extra
exciting: a day at the beach, a day in the car. At the beach you can be as
messy as you want – there’s a giant sink just a few feet away, right? But once you start talking about road trip
grub, the type of snack starts to matter. It can’t be too messy, but a
combination of flavors is always good… One of my favorite, simple, on-the-go
snacks are TWIX Bites. They are perfect enough to pop into your mouth without a
mess of crumbs. And because I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets, these are
the perfect size for guilt-free indulgences.

On a recent road trip to the country with Daniel, I used
TWIX Bites as an incentive to quit one of my very worst driving habits:
picking. If I’m behind the wheel, my hands get bored. You’d think a steering wheel
would be enough, but alas. My little hands will wander all over my face, scalp,
etc, wreaking havoc with every imperfection. TWIX Bites assisted me in two
ways: 1. If I didn’t touch my face for a certain amount of time [determined by
my sweet passenger], I was allowed a chocolatey snack! 2. After a couple TWIX Bites and no wipes or sanitizer, I couldn’t touch my face. Ha! TWIX to the
rescue!

For the month of May I participated in a diet bet and had to
watch what I ate relatively closely in order to lose the required amount of
weight. TWIX Bites ebbed my chocolatey cravings, while keeping me on the right
track to my goal weight!

In preparation for my next road trip [this weekend!], I’ve come up with a salty/sweet snack to surprise my car-mates with. PopTWIX! Cut your TWIX Bites into fourths and pour them into a Tupperware full of popcorn. The chocolate and caramel will stick to the warm popcorn, creating a perfect marriage of flavors that are taste-bud-ready. Just make sure to bring some hand wipes along. 🙂

do you use to quit a bad habit?

You and I have the same bad habit. lol. I try so hard not to do it.
Cool snack idea as well. I'm going to have to try it. Thanks!
yum! i always always have to buy the original combos snacks whenever i go on a road trip. we used to always get them while traveling when i was younger so it always brings back lots of memories.
I'm relieved to see I'm not the only one with this bad habit. I never realized it until traveling to a conference with a new friend who helpfully pointed this out. I might have to try this trick because those TWIX Bites are calling my name! #client
MoonPies are my go-to road trip snack. Any flavor will do.
