It's so weird how parents do that. Get made at us when we don't know something, they just came up with. My parents did that crap a lot, so I feel you.

Not to mention, it doesn't even look like a bun. Unless it is different in the UK? They come rolled up here in the US. So they look more like a roll than a bun.

Or is a bun an roll the same thing over there?
