Ooh the delicious outrage over hot cross buns just got a whole lot spicier.
While the killjoys of Australia are busy whingeing about the baked goods being sold “too early” for Easter – they’re fruit buns, mate, get a grip – the good people at Woolworths have given the rest of us the greatest gift of all.
Get your spoons around Hot Cross Bun Ice Cream.
Deadset Australian Of The Year for this service to our country.
And the fact it fires up the haters even more just makes it sweeter.
Yes, I know it’s months until Easter – because you keep shouting it at everyone. Don’t care. Hot cross buns are delicious and should be enjoyed year-round.
Do you not eat fruit bread at all during the year? Toasty warm and smothered in butter. It’s essentially the same thing.
If you are so personally hurt about some sweet, spiced buns being for sale as early as Boxing Day, you could always just, I don’t know, not buy them. Because no one is really forcing them down your throat.
