Do cheese and onions belong in a hot cross bun? (www.rnz.co.nz)

While chocolate-studded or fruit-free sourdough or brioche hot cross buns are becoming common, a Taranaki bakery has found a way to push the boundaries even further by producing a cheese and onion version containing onion powder, onion flakes and "a very nice Dutch cheese".

They belong in the hot cross buns of people who like that.

I like my hot cross buns cold. Live and let live, I say.

I have a kid that, from a young age, has enjoyed eating frozen slices of bread. Also frozen peas, corn, bananas, etc.

So I'm gonna have to seek some clarity over what you mean by "cold". Are you referring to room temperature?

Room temp/fridge temp, but with butter low temp enough to be little slabs of hard butter.

Frozen peas is legit.

My partner makes sandwiches of frozen bread and yet mocks me for my cold cross buns. Hmmmm.

Haha well maybe if your hot cross buns were frozen they would be acceptable!

True. Might try to allure them with that.
