Pre-sliced hamburger buns

[snowangel]

So why does every single pre-sliced burger bun I've ever bought have such a thin bottom and thick top? I don't notice the same unevenness in pre-sliced hot dog or brat buns.

My guests think I'm odd when, on the now odd occasion that I use pre-sliced buns that I serve them "upside down."

What gives with the thick top half and the 1/4" bottom half? Assuming that the burger is juicy, it simply dissolves.

(Yes, most often I buy unsliced buns and do them up right, but sometimes I get pre-sliced, or someone brings them over.)

Really, we have many suppliers of hot dog buns here with 1/4" bottom buns. (huh bottom buns, giggles)

Even worse was when the rolls I bought Sunday didnt seem like the would be sliced....boy the knife goes through fast when they are actually already cut
