Now SnackManiac doesn't intend to make a habit of weighing in on issues of religion (although we have provided limited commentary on race relations and parenting,) but the story of this Judeo-Christian snack MUST BE TOLD!Growing up, the SnackManiac was force fed "Hot Cross Buns" (pictured above) for the duration Lent. Provided with no further information about these rock hard buns filled with those little gummy fruits that you hate in fruit cake, I assumed that the experience of eating these for breakfast in lieu of Eggos for 40 days was intended to allow me to share is Christ's suffering.
A quick tour of the 'net by my research team has failed to turn up any facts refuting my theory.
Try them out. And be sure to go for the one with the most icing, because that is the only way you are going to be able to get it down.

I don't remember the specific relationship this snack has with the lord from my childhood. I do remember being disgusted when I had to eat these things. They looked sweet and delicious, but were old tasting and disgusting.
