Bun& WHAT?!
published: Thursday | April 1, 2004

BUN AND CHEESE is a sacred Jamaican Easter tradition, of course. But have you heard about the wacky combinations of bun and other toppings?

We thought we'd heard it all until someone mentioned eating bun and mustard. What?!

Then slowly others started confessing their dirty little secrets ­ they don't always have cheese with their bun. Mouth agape, Food listened as they spilled the beans of how they slather their bun with mayonnaise, ketchup, peanut butter, or top it with sardines, corned beef, egg or patty. One person even owned up to a bun and bread sandwich ­ two slices of bun and a slice of real Jamaican hard dough in the middle, or vice versa.

However you top it, enjoy your Easter bun this season. In the meantime, we'll leave you with this to chew on ­ bun and soup. Yes, one brave soul breaks the bun into pieces and adds it to his soup. Now, that's a gastronomic adventure!
