Woolworths have wasted no time stocking shelves with hot cross buns only a day after Christmas.
And while some people have expressed outrage at the delicious fruit-spiced buns…

Complaining that hot cross buns are in shops too early is like complaining your sex life is too rich and varied and satisfying

I think hot cross buns being on sale is a weird thing to be mad about.

Was disappointed to find NO hot cross buns at my local Coles yesterday afternoon. How am I supposed to get my Easter on?

Woolworths, however, has been savage AF about their decision, sassily saying on social media: “haters gonna hate, bakers gonna bake!”
One young woman went far enough to create an online petition to have the traditional Easter treats available all-year round.
“Who wouldn’t love them selves a nice warm toasted hot cross bun in the morning,” she wrote on the petition, which was created yesterday.
Her goal is for 1000 signatures, at the time of publishing this article, she had only garnered 10.
