'The craziness continues!' Customer fury as Iceland changes religious symbol to a tick on hot cross buns.
Iceland is running a trial where it will sell hot cross buns with a 'tick' instead of a 'cross' alongside the traditional treats that feature a cross.
However, this has caused fury among some customers and Christian groups as it removes the religious symbol, with some shoppers calling it "craziness".

However, this has caused fury among some customers and Christian groups as it removes the religious symbol, with some shoppers calling it "craziness".
Hot cross buns are sold around the religious holiday of Easter and feature a cross as part of their design. This is meant to represent the crucifixion of Jesus, giving a nod to Good Friday.
Research by Iceland suggested a fifth of customers want to ditch the cross and would prefer a 'tick' symbol on their sweet treats instead.
Iceland's David Lennox said: “According to the research, it seems some people want to do away with the cross design and move to a tick instead.
“The results surprised us, but in true British fashion, we’re putting it to the test by trialling ticks on some of our buns.”
However, customers and Christian groups have shared their shock at the trial. Posting on social media, one user said: "The craziness continues.
"I really hope their sales suffer and they return to normalcy soon, but to do this near Easter is frankly bordering on insulting."
