Oh FFS, what would you know shifu, you're a vegan leftie who lives on the other side of the country!

WTF would you know about sausages and the slipperiness of onions? You self proclaimed superior intellect who dares to question such highly suspicious decrees.

How dare you defer to the experts when your years of on-the-job experience in sausages and onions carries more weight than government and experts alike.

Assertions become facts and facts become muddled in your relentless perpetuation of the myth that slippery onions kill in large numbers and must be eradicated before they come into contact with unsuspecting thong wearing idiots doing DIY projects.

Now don't go off in a hissy fit now.

If they were serious about ohs .
It would be mandatory to pass a test before you can buy power tools .
Tradies exempted.
Im sure a lot more people suffer injuries from what there selling than the onions .
Obviously someone slipped & sued .

The damn thing has been desecrated already, by allowing SLICED BREAD to be used instead of rolls!
It's sacrilege!!

The onions should go on the bottom anyway, you get more in and can squash them down with the snag.

Meanwhile in the garden section of Bunnings...once that concrete is wet it is slippery as f@rk! Almost gone c_ _ t up a number of times.

Mate of mine slipped and fractured his arm on the wet concrete there. When we spoke to them, the response was...."yeah it gets a bit slippery at times".

Maybe Trev should buy some better shoes. Leather soles. What's he doing wearing his dancing shoes to Bunnings. Are s#it that right, when something goes wrong it's always someones else's fault, now just who can I blame, and I don't give a flying f#$k if it ****s up the everyone one else's life.

Looks like another f%#ker with a bad case of "Poor Bugger Me" syndrome

I worked at Bunnings before I retired and I'll have to tell you that there is nothing more disgusting than talking to a customer who has got his head tilted back shovelling a disgusting sausage sarni into his mouth with onion dropping at his feet and talking to you at the same time.Sauce
running down his chin and he can't understand why I would just walk away. The charities purchase the cheapest sausages money can buy and you shouldn't feed them to your dog.
At least Bunnings should make them eat it outside in a restricted area. We were forever wiping up the mess which was definitely a slip hazard.
A hardware store can be a dangerous place with customers carrying heavy and awkward goods so the last thing you need is slipping because some pig spilled the pile of onion he's dropped and left it there.

A few questions:

A) Why do they eastern states use a single slice of bread?
Bread is used in pairs (for s sandwich) or singly for a single layer of something spreadable. It is a poor choice for holding a round long thing.
A Bread Rolls (Hot dog style) only purpose... is to hold a round long thing.

Like most things at Bunnings... and most people who use things from Bunnings... you're using a tool not designed for the job.
Do they Eastern Staters use hammers to put in screws? Like sure it works... but its not the tool for the job.



B) Why are you buying it on the way in?
The only way I can keep my rugrats in line is the promise of a Sausage in a Bun if they don't run anyone over with the tiny little trolley that they race each other with.

And surely the correct time to eat it is on the way out so you eat it in car while driving with your knees and getting the Apprentice/Wife/Kid to change gears for you.




I have on occasion bought "Sausage in a Bun" for family lunch when out and about... as in used Bunnings as a drive through fast food outlet - where else can you feed a family of 4 for $10?

I need to admit I put Tomato, BBQ and Mustard on my sausage. The onions have always been on the bottom and we use a proper bun/roll here in WA, not a cheap slice of **** bread.

I would be so upset if they started using **** bread, instead of a proper onion and sauce filled bunroll.

Change to buns and the problem is solved, no leaking crap from your edible serviette.

One idiot slips on a slice of "fried onion" and now the civil war has started between the onions on top V's the onions below tribes. I would suggest the unsteady on his feet farmer may have to lay off the Cane Cutters Cordial and go for something lighter, like a soy latte or something.
I thought that farmers were rather tough, hard working, robust sort of people not smashed avocado on sourdough types?

I also agree we have been conditioned to love a sausage sizzle. The smell and the taste has been implanted forever. What do vegans and Veges do when they smell it? Do they do a sinus rinse or something?

How good is it when you are on the road without supplies and there are a few people, that you can pop into a shop and buy sausages, buns, onions and sauce (maybe paper towels and butter) for barely nothing and hit up a free BBQ on the beach?

You can't really mess up cooking it and it feeds everyone for such a small cost, and everyone is satisfied (Except Vegans, Vegos, Glampers, etc)

I think it is the Bunnings' brainwashing and conditioning program that has achieved this marvellous feat. Not the polling booths with their slice of bread crap (In WA).

Perhaps they could just ask "Do you prefer it top or bottom? There is a slight risk if it's on top you may slip, fall and hurt yourself and possibly many others."

Maybe we will need to sign waivers to enter Bunnings and eat their sausages.

Mate, we are talking about undercooked/overcooked onions here and where they can be placed. How can that be offensive to even a rose petal?

It's either bottom, on top, or both, depending on what you want that Saturday/Sunday. Bun rolls is where a real sausage sizzle is. Only in WA.

You just have flaps of cheap white bread, 99c a loaf.

Where the sauce is squirted is another matter. I use all three, and get my money's worth. BBQ, Mustard and tomato. The paper towels contains all the drips.

Then I shop at Bunnings. What do you want? Another plebiscite about onion placement?

WHY? Like many thing in life, maybe it should be OK to have it either way.

Just because they put the greasy onion on the bottom doesn't stop it slipping out of the Bun/flappy bread and making a slippery mess everywhere. It also depends on how much sauce is spilt. I load up with a trifecta of BBQ, Tomato and Mustard.

They just need to ask "Do you want it top or bottom?" and If you have any spillage, Please clean it up with the supplied Napkins. They have receptacles all throughout each store you can stuff it in when you are finished. Or just reach out to a Bunnings' member for help. They are there to help for anything according to the adverts.

We will probably end up with a nationwide grilled onion ban.
