Def. #4 probably shouldn't be tagged as exclusively British...in America the plural "buns" is used frequently. --Connel MacKenzie T C 09:39, 3 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Small?

[edit]

Hamburger buns aren't small; perhaps a parenthetical note that, "Size varies by type," (or the like) would be appropriate? --Jesdisciple 04:12, 2 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Buttocks

[edit]

Clearly the sense (plural) The buttocks is meant for buns. Can you have just one bun, in this sense? If so, don't restore the translations as they seems to be for the plural form, not the singular. Mglovesfun (talk) 23:11, 9 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

I haven't checked, but "left bun" and "right bun" would be a good way to search for candidate uses. Equinox 21:43, 25 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
