Now is the time for the people of the Earth to take action.
We do not object to hot cross buns. Hot cross buns are delightful.
We object to the willy-nilly marketing of hot cross buns outside of Easter. Hot cross buns are an Easter food yet they are on sale en-masse on Boxing Day. Worse, they are available all-year-round. This is an abomination and must be dealt with.
Join us in returning hot cross buns to their right time on the calendar.
Whenever you see hot cross buns for sale outside of the Easter lead-up, we urge you to turn them upside down. Do not steal them, do not damage them or move them to a new location, just turn them upside down to signal to store owners and to others your horror.
The hot cross bun marks the end of the season of Lent but can be enjoyed by anyone;
Lent concludes on Holy Thursday/Passover, the Thursday before Easter. Some religious observances see the Saturday of the Easter period as the end of Lent. Easter itself can fall on different weekends according to which version you prefer.
In short, the consumption of hot cross buns before Holy Thursday/Passover or Good Friday is an abomination. Sale of hot cross buns before the week of Easter is an abomination. It must stop now. Or tomorrow if you go up the shops tomorrow. Some may say that they purchase these delights early but there is early and there is just damned silly. They are hot cross buns, not hot cross stale rocks.
Save the bun! Make the bun special again!
Feel free to email us your photographs of up-turned hot cross bun packages, we will post a selection of them around the Internet. Or go to our social media accounts and upload your pics.
Keep them clean, keep them legal and keep these retailers in check.
