as an atheist, i'm pleased that the bun market caters for me & offers 'toasted teacakes' in case i might be offended by being forced to consume hot buns bearing religious symbolisms.

teacakes have exactly the same content as do hot cross buns but have a plain finish.

incidently, i also love to eat hot x buns- as i'm not at offended & will gobble them dow with gusto cross 'n all.

i attended a 'diversity day' in work last year- among the 'pc' ludicrous examples were 'personchester'- as above;

personhole!!, isle of person, person o' war,neutralbird, neutral cliffs of dover, chalkboard jungle, mary neutral etc.

any more?


[ps: does the term 'hot cross buns' contravene the trade descriptions act?- they're always sold as 'cold cross buns'!]
