Recipe for ...

Hello

Everyone has their own unique recipe for addictive behavior.

Does it mean they have "unique recipe how to avoid addictive behavior" or the other way round?
  

Top answer

It sounds like it means 'to cause addictive behaviour'. The term is usually used for something positive, eg 'He has his own recipe for success'. Perhaps the writer meant to use another word?
