OP The_Real_Hawkeye Campfire Sage T Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 131,874 Likes: 41 USA	I’m watching a 20 year old episode of Top Chef, and someone says he’s going to prepare twice baked potatoes. Never heard of that, so I pull out my iPhone and planned to search “twice baked potatoes.” All I had to do was type most of the word “twice,” and Google suggests “twice baked potato.” Top suggestion. How did Google know that’s what I wanted to know about? Is that what’s suggested when you type twic into Google?

However, I assure you that I have not even thought of twice Baked potatoes in a while prior to see this post. So I went to Google and typed in "twic" and "twice Baked potatoes" popped up. I'm guessing it's just a common search item.
