Abstract
A twist tie and dispensing system provides for the dispensing of single twist ties attached together end-to-end in a semi continuous ribbon having spaced separation points that permit separation of individual twist ties at a predetermined tension. Twist ties may be dispensed through an aperture that engages with obstructions placed periodically on the ribbon to cause pulling of the twist tie through the aperture to impart the necessary separating tension when the obstruction is reached so that one twist tie at a time may be dispensed.
