Twin Bing[edit]

  • ... that the Twin Bing has been described as "two brown lumps, about the size of golf balls, roughly textured, and stuck to one another like Siamese twins"?

  • OK, it's new enough, the image is properly licensed, the hook is verified, and the article is almost/maybe long enough: the 5x is narrowly passed here. BUT, there's a slight catch: SL93, plz look at my edit summaries: I just don't see what those last two sentences are doing in this article, and the very word choice ("Due to the FDA") is a bit odd--accusatory in some libertarian way, or at least that's how I read it. I think, if you'll allow me a suggestion, that it would be more productive to list the actual ingredients and nutritional value; that should get you enough to pass the 5x test even if you scrap the current last two sentences (which I would scrap).

  • Thanks for the review and the expansion. I also removed the last two sentences. SL93 (talk) 18:39, 4 May 2017 (UTC)
  • Sure thing, SL93. Let's celebrate with anything but that martini. Drmies (talk) 01:46, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
