Iceland are now moving away from hot cross buns and replacing them with a tick , because , they say, around 20% of customers don't like the religious link.

It clearly has upset a group of people who don't want to stare at a cross while they scoff their faces.
They could just buy a tin of rice pudding.

The pretending you aren't triggered and it's everyone else who is triggered is such a ADM move.

ADM .. weird hobby spending your time looking online for stories that upset the right whingers, and yet you can't be arsed to do even basic research to check if its fake. Just enjoy life and City's cup run fella.

A tick you say. I blame Nike again. I’m off to the Nike shop to buy a pair of trainers so I can set them on fire, film it and then post it online. That will learned them.

Seems like he might’ve justified wearing them by saying it’s ok, the trainers are 15 years old.

I love the way these triggered MP’s and commentators get on their high horse talking for the “majority” and it turns out to the the greatest marketing anyone could do. First Greggs and now Icelands.

Tory MP's outrage over Iceland hot cross buns see sales soar by 134%

“They weren’t for real btw lads – and sales of our devout and trad hot cross buns were up 134 per cent yesterday.”
www.thelondoneconomic.com

It’s almost as if they do something deliberately knowing certain people with a platform will get triggered inadvertently triggering a positive response to what they did in the first place.

I got an electric shock off a hot cross bun at work last week, I was coming down off the ladder and trod on one and a current ran up my leg.
I'll get my coat!

Deluded. Have a blue and purple hot cross bun, which hopefully will be coming to the high street soon, specifically to trigger the tub thumping gammons to throw rocks at the moon.

Any kind of teacher beats sitting in a bedsit staring at a large poster of Gerry Adams.
