I've had an obsession with boba milk tea for a few years now and I feel like I'm going to turn into a ball of tapioca if I have one more.

I'm curious to know if anyone else has any weird or major food/drink obsessions Grin

Piccalilli, I can eat a whole jar without anything else. Also elderflower cordial (two bottles a week) and it's really expensive.

Forest Feast sour cherries in dark chocolate (their dark chocolate salted almonds are good too)
Vadasz hot and sweet fermented jalapeños (vadasz pickles generally are pretty delicious)
Remedy kombucha

Baked camembert, raffello, houmus, olives, not all at once!

Horseradish sauce. I actually eat it with a spoon straight from the jar.

😳😁

Loving crispy onions that you get in the shake bottle and gurkins at the mo. Had them at a food festival on dirty fries. Love them on salad.

Topsyturvey10 · 05/10/2024 21:25

Yorkshire tea with oat milk
Malteasers
Marmite on toast (small amounts eaten from the jar if I'm out of bread)

I'm loyal to these at the moment but I too go through phases and have them every single day then don't eat them for months.
I'm the same with alcohol, I'll have a drink every day (only one) then I'm off it, not vaguely interested for months then the cycle starts again.

M&S Roast Beef crisps with a bovril cube crumbled on top

All the fruit ice lollies

Chicken yakitori sushi from M&S, had it three times in a week. Been craving it last week and this week, think it's now been discontinued! What are the chances?!
I've now been having the Korean chicken sushi but it's not as good as yakitori.

Vimto.
i can’t drink anything else.

TripleCarber · 05/10/2024 21:27

Blue cheese,
black olives (just the cheap jarred stuff in brine) I could literally eat a whole jar everyday if I let myself.
longley farm cottage cheese

Lee Kum Lee Chiu Chow chilli oil, it's so umami and spicy and tastes far superior to Lao Gan Ma in my opinion. I put it on everything - eggs, rice dishes, even a cheese toastie.

MSG, I add a pinch to pretty much most dishes and it lifts the flavour so much.

Aldi's sour rocket lollies they were selling earlier in the summer, long since discontinued 😭. They were amazing and the normal rocket lollies just taste watery, they aren't the same.

Also olives. I love plain instant noodles with olives and a bit of brine, sesame oil and soy sauce. I know it's weird but it tastes great.

Trebor extra strong mints.
Tonnes of them.
But no alcohol, no other sweets and no fatty stuff.
Oh well 💚

Truffle flavour anything, but especially cheese. Can't get enough of it.

Yes!

I hope you enjoy these crisps. (Other truffle crisps are available but these are the best.) https://www.fortnumandmason.com/torres-truffle-crisps-125g

Pepsi Max. I’m very addicted.

@IsItOnTheTrolleyCanYouSeeIt we're big apple and pear squash drinkers here.
But I prefer Morrisons own brand to Robinson's.

Sherbet lemons - if anyone could recommend some really lovely ones I'd be very grateful
