Apparently steamed buns are no longer available at McDonald's?!?!?!?!

Ok try not to freak out, but some McDonald's chains may no longer be doing steamed buns...

WE KNOW WE AREN'T HAPPY EITHER.

The steamed bun rumours sprouted from a post by Tom Rendall on McDonald's Facebook page:

In just over a day the post has amassed over 750 distraught comments of concern from steamed-bun-lovers. 

McDonald's recently replied to Tom, making us breathe a sigh of relief with this response:

But Tom's response to that made us fear for the residences of Tauranga:

 And they replied:

With no clear word on the mystery, we decided to do some investigative research - for anyone that know's our boss... Mr Hayden Hare, he is an absolute Maccas fanatic! So we asked him to order some Maccas which he had no problem doing! 

A cheeseburger, Big Mac, Quarter Pounder and Filet O Fish, all with steamed buns. 

AND THEY ALL CAME BACK STEAMED PRAISE THE LORD! 

So we're still no closer to having a clear answer to this whole steamed-bun fiasco, but all we can hope for is for steamed-buns to never leave our lives.
