"Fun" etymological note:
Many Brits tease Americans for using "tidbit" over "titbit", as if it were due to some Puritanical censorship of "tit".
However, "tyd bit" / "tid bit" seems to pre-date "titbit".
"Tyd" or "tid" meant "tender", so a "tyd bit" typically meant a small, tender morsel.
Both are valid, but neither is a sign of censored or vulgarised language: just linguistic shift in British English.
