A bun is a type of bread that is round and small enough that it can generally be eaten hand-held. Whether a bun is considered sweetened or unsweetened differs between countries: it is considered sweetened in England, Scotland and Wales, (except for the North-East of England where it is both) a savory bread in Northern Ireland, and either a sweet bread or a savory bread roll in the United States.
