Question 271
X cans because of their shape, have been used to make Wi-Fi network antennas, known as cantennas.These cans can also be use to make "cannons," or, "poppers," by putting a round hole in the bottom end of the can and blowing hard a loud popping sound will be made as the lid flies off. When filled with little bits of paper it shoots out confetti.The popular newspaper comic Dilbert references a use for the X can. Dilbert rolls up his clothing in a X tube so he can change clothes at work without having to drive home and change clothes.X containers can also be used to hold up to three tennis balls. This similarity of shape was the subject of a joke by Mitch Hedberg, who speculated that tennis balls were what X had originally intended to make.

Question 266
X came into existence in 1872 in Switzerland, when Julius X took over his father's mill. It quickly became a pioneer of industrial food production, aiming at the improvement of the nutrition of worker families. It was the first to bring protein-rich legume meal to the market, which was followed by ready-made soup based on legume meal in 1886. In 1897, Julius X founded the company X GmbH in the German town of Singen where it is still established today.In parts of Europe, including German-speaking countries as well as the Netherlands, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, and France, "X" is still synonymous with the brand's "X-Würze" (X spice), a dark sauce which is very similar to East Asian soy sauce without actually containing soy. It was also introduced in 1886, as a cheap substitute for meat extract. It has since become a well-known part of everyday culinary culture in Switzerland, Austria and especially in Germany.The bouillon cube or 'X cube' was introduced in 1908, which was another meat substitution product.Because chicken and beef broths are so common in the cuisines of many different countries, the company's products have a large worldwide market. Today X is particularly well known in New Zealand, Australia, Mexico, Pakistan, India, Malaysia and Singapore
