What's more ridiculous: Fruit Mince Pies sold in September or Hot Cross Buns sold on January 2!

Ihave experienced both these things in the past year, Woolworths at least is getting some extreme ideas about both these things being sold months in advance...

If people didn't buy them stores wouldn't bother to stock/sell them. So, neither is really ridiculous. It is, as usual, all up to the consumer and what they want.

Dislike shop bought fruit mince pies, should only be for Xmas. Won't buy or eat them. <br/>Like & buy fruit buns, only buy Hot Cross for their intended purpose of Good Friday, so I'll buy them the day before.

Hot Cross Buns On January 2!

Given that both are associated with a specific occasion both are offered at a ridiculous time. However, both can be enjoyed throughput the year as fruit pies or sweet buns without the attendant decoration.

If they do not have the stars or crosses - I will buy them all year. If they do - I refuse to buy them for more than a month.

I love both anytime - the hot cross buns are better cold anyway.

I agree with Mr Stupid (not sure about the accuracy of the name though!). Supermarkets will only stock what they can sell. And I don't care when they they are sold, I would eat either (preferably both!) all year.
