Andrew Dickens sparked a fierce debate on his show this afternoon by suggesting that hot cross buns should be sold only in the week of Easter.

He says that the cross on the bun is a religious symbol, and that it doesn't make any sense for them to be sold outside of the Easter period.

He suggested that supermarkets and bakers could make the spicy, fruity buns without the cross so that they make more sense.
