Here's a bun from Swee Heng that I've been wanting to try for months since I saw it, but didn't buy because I expected it to be an indulgent calorie bomb (dieting days, yanno). Finally bought it yesterday! Was so excited to cut it open to see how much salted egg filling was inside...

...and then I got super confused. Salted egg? Where?? When I used my fork to pry open the bun, there was a small hole in the bun with a super thin pale yellow layer on the interior, like someone had used a butter knife to very very sparingly spread a thin layer of sauce inside. Even as I was eating it, I couldn't taste any salted egg. Since there were 2 buns in the box, I tried again and it was the same thing. (First pic was after microwaving, the "flaps" closed so you cant really see the hole inside. Second pic was when I cut it open before microwaving so you can the lack of filling in all its glory)

As a floss bun on it's own, it's really good. You can never go wrong with a good ol' floss bun. Unless that floss bun is supposed to be a salted egg floss bun but has no actual salted egg. Then, you've got yourself a disappointment. I have no idea how I'm supposed to score this because it's still really delicious but the lack of salted egg left me feeling like a kid receiving a beautiful box on Christmas, then opening it to find that it's empty. The floss bun would get 8.5/10 but the lack of salted egg gets a -1.5.

Not to mention that it's 2 for $2.40, which means 1 is $1.20 for a small bun, hence it's more expensive. Yeahhhh this was a disappointing experience, especially for a bun that I've been dreaming of trying for so long :/
