A third of Brits feel bored by their snack choices, new research reveals.
Just under one in three (30%) made the admission, with a similar number (34%) confessing they wish they could break free from their same old snacking cycle.
Exactly 32% admit they eat the same snack up to five times a week, with around half (49%) saying they are looking for more snack satisfaction and over three-quarters (77%) admitting they are on 'auto-pilot' when shopping for snacks in the supermarket.

A fifth (19%) eat the same snack as many as seven times a week, with a quarter (24%) even admitting they've been buying the same snacks for the past 10 years (24%) and two-thirds (64%) feeling oddly loyal to their go-to choice.
In fact, Brits admit they're more likely to be faithful to their go-to snack than their favourite takeaway (14%), pub (12%), favourite TV show (12%), and even football team (11%).

And as for what's stopping them, over three in 10 say they stick to what they know because of comfort (32%).
For others it's convenience (22%), worrying they'll be disappointed (18%), feeling stuck in a snacking rut (11%) or even having too many options available to them (10%).
Nearly a quarter would be swayed if the snack was limited edition (22%), two in 10 are tempted by snacks with extra crunch (20%), whereas others look for a spicy kick (17%) and an extra cheesy thrill (17%).
