Rice Krispie Quandary

[Magicme]

BUNS BUNS BUNS.....Old Monaghan Person.....

Jaysus its the dubs that confuse things with their "Jockey Backs" instead of Piggy Backs, their "Presses" instead of cupboards etc......god am glad am a nordy who calls it Boxing Day and not St Stephens day.

[stann]

Its called a bun I tells ya, a BUN!!! never heard of a "Rise Crispy Cake" until it was discused on Today FM this morning.

That's it exactly!!! That's what D'Arcy does, and that's the main reason why I hate him so much.
He takes a stone-wall, buttoned-down, known-by-all concept like the Rice Krispie Bun, and whether through his own ****wittery or a more devious desire to create more inane 'debate', introduces this dilemma that has half the easily-led gob****es in the country suddenly always remembering things that never were.

There is not, nor ever was, any such thing as a Rice Krispy Cake!!!!
I effing HATE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!

[dahamsta]

Bit of calm there stann, it's not the end of the world. And besides, they're called Rice Crispy Cakes. This whole "bun" malarkey is a figment of your imagination.

Never! Will never give in. Buns! Buns! Buns!!!!!!!!
All the way 'til Judgement Day.

But, on a side note, just noticed you said Crispy. I also always thought it was Crispy, am convinced of it. On the Kellogg's website though it's Krispy!
Has there been a quiet Ulay-Olay-type switch in recent years?
This is a more profitable direction for enquiring minds, rather than sticking to an argument ye can't win!

[Aberdonian Stu]

It's always had a K

[paul_oshea]

has anyone noticed those of us from the west of ireland think its a BUN!!!!!

therefore we must be right. that link posted by joesoap, are we not on about the chocolate rice krispies i.e.
rice krispie buns?

god am glad am a nordy who calls it Boxing Day and not St Stephens day.

had a big argument with the missus over this, it didnt help when i called her a nordie prodie ( derry border ), but its FCUKEN ST STEPHENS DAY!!!!!! dont even think of bringing that one in.........

Boxing Day is English/British and Stephen's Day is Irish. No debate over that!

[Macy]

They're served in those little bun cases/wrappers so they're buns

Like fairy cakes?

It's Rice Krispie Cakes, and it is a FACT. And I used to work for Kellogg's in the factory that makes Rice Krispies, obviously lending weight to my view point.

And btw Stann, D'Arcy was actually not doing the show last week, so a bit of an uncalled for rant!

[Schumi]

Like fairy cakes?

As said above, fairy cakes are a type of bun.

[Macy]

As said above, fairy cakes are a type of bun.

But I thought if they were baked they were a cake not a bun?

It's cake not bun, just as it's barm not muffin.

Since when did you support Bohs?

Who ate all the cakes?

[Dr.Nightdub]

43, reared in London, Belfast and Dublin and they were buns in all three.

Cakes are something you cut with a knife, like birthday cake, or wedding cake - with the exception of jaffa cakes and they're notable purely cos they are the exception. Cakes have to be baked - you try putting chocolate in the oven and see where it gets you.

[Magicme]

Boxing Day is English/British and Stephen's Day is Irish. No debate over that!

True its British but as a citizen of the British Empire I am sticking to my guns....anyway I prefer the story behind Boxing Day than another stupid saints day. I like the idea of the poor being given the excess of the rich....robin hood type sentimentality.

[Risteard]

28 wrong people.

[The Stars]

Cake, 18 and Sligo if that helps.

Bun,18 Sligo if it helps.......although sligoman went to a school out of town so its probably the buff coming ouut in him,us townies call it bun.

[sligoman]

Yes cos Rice Krispies Cakes/Buns was always a daily topic in school .

[stann]

And btw Stann, D'Arcy was actually not doing the show last week, so a bit of an uncalled for rant!

Didn't listen to the show to be honest, never do anymore, but a rant against D'arcy is never uncalled for!
And it's still buns!
And Stephens' Day Magicme!

[paul_oshea]

I thought we only used that term in the ros!

[dancinpants]

Can't believe not one other person calls it a Rice Krispie Pie

[Longfordian]

It's cake not bun, just as it's barm not muffin.

The great Manc barm/muffin debate shows up on here! Can't comment on that one but as regards cake/bun..bun is what I've always called it. No point in me changing to your high society ways now.
