If there's ever been one area in my life where I'm pretty much a creature of habit, it's food. Although I can pretty much turn my hand to most things when it comes to cooking (given the limits of being a vegetarian, of course), I find that I often have the same meals and when it comes to certain items I'm even more obsessive-compulsive.

I see that Cadbury's have brought back the Wispa chocolate bar, by popular demand apparently. At one point they also produced other versions of it: the caramel one, which I found too sweet, and a mint one which I obsessed over for getting on for six months. I would literally, Monday to Friday, have a mint Wispa every day with my lunch. And then one day I just didn't want one any more.

My current obsessions are as follows:

Stony organic vanilla yoghurt (even if it means going to Tesco because Sainsburys seem to have stopped stocking it)

Innocent pineapple, banana and coconut smoothies

Quorn southern style pretend-chicken burgers (it doesn't say 'pretend-chicken' on the packet, btw!)

So, anyone else have foods they're addicted to? Not generally, but specific brands and items? Please don't ask me to believe I'm alone in this... ;)

Couscous! Can't get enough of it at the moment. Current favourite is the 'Moroccan' style one from Waitrose, although I've been experimenting with my own concoctions 'cos it's unnecessarily expensive to buy the ready-made stuff always. Last year it was hummus. With everything, anything, or nothing at all - just straight out of the pot. *g*

Also, peppered salami and onion marmalade - together! In jacket potatoes, bread rolls, and even in risotto. With some brie too if I've got any.

The rhubarb-flavoured Muller Rice which is a special edition at the moment. Last year they had plum and that was rather good too.

Rice crackers - crack black pepper or sweet chilli flavours.
