First it was the lavender biscuits, and now everyone's talking about the Duchess of Cambridge's curry cravings! Yes, according to Us Weekly, she's been loving homemade Indian dishes made by Hash Shingadia, whose husband owns a store near the Middletons' home. The Duchess noted the "delicious" smell one day when Shingadia was cooking above the store, and they offered her the curry to take home. She's been a regular customer ever since. Neat, huh? 

The Duchess has enjoyed an array of Shingadia's curries. Last month, she took home a dish (for two!) of the mild vegetarian curry (potatoes, lentils, peas, cauliflower and spinach) with some rice and naan bread.

When Mariah Carey was pregnant with twins Moroccan and Monroe, she had some pretty wild cravings. "The thing that we would always share together would be Big Gulps Slurpees from 7-Eleven," hubby Nick Cannon says in an interview with Barbara Walters. "The cherry, the red flavour," Carey adds.

But that's not all. Carey also craved...candy apples! "Early on, I had a candied apple thing," she says. But, Cannon laughs, "Where am I supposed to find candied apples at 2 a.m.?" To solve the problem, Cannon actually bought store-bought candy coating, and made the candy apples himself! Funny. Can you imagine?!
