That is a mistranslation. It wasn't cinnamon buns, it was hetvägg, a type of cardamom bun swimming in sweetened hot milk/cream.

14 cinnamon buns would be rookie numbers
They are really good. Just make sure the cardamom is mixed in well.
and that you're not a king of sweden
Do you suppose he was trying to be the King of Sweets, too?
Or the king of The Sweet?
A time-traveler, too? At that mass? Oofda.
Didn't you know? All kings are time travelers. ESPECIALLY the Swedish ones.
Ohhh, that's what No Kings is really about? That makes so much sense now.
Yeah, lots of anti time travel sentiment in the US population.
They have a hard enough time denying the details of their own history WITHOUT people just going to see for themselves!

I should've known that you, of all characters, would be familiar with atypical time manipulation. I mean, c'mon. You've an ironic anachronism (separated by centuries, no less) as your whole username. 😋

For my encore, I'll juggle the simultaneous beliefs in pacifism, that collective punishment is wrong, and that the guillotine for all billionaires is a moral imperative😉
Joking aside, though, my username is actually quite apt: I'm a big bearded guy from Denmark and I'm also a far left anti-authoritarian pacifist (with certain exceptions to the rule such as the above one) 🤷🏻
We're not too dissimilar, geophysically aside, it would seem. No note, other than Mr own personal preference to spell "moral imperative" in that context as "civic duty", instead. Also, for fertilizer; it's a wiser solution than simply eating them as the old saying goes, and the crops will reward us all!
what if you are a queen of sweden?
I make sure of that every morning, just to be on the safe side.
They're amazing. I can definitely believe someone dying after eating 14 of them in one sitting though. I can barely get through one before I just can't eat anymore.
Yes, and to add: hetvägg is the precursor to the modern semla, which is probably pretty much a national dish here now.
The traditional hetvägg is equally if not more delicious though, although quite a bit more involved to make.
hetvägg
Heterosexual/hot wall? 🤔
Hetero pussy
A much sought after delicacy
Second only to the bi version. 🤌🏼

hot wall?
Given some cinnamon buns I've had in in my life, they could have just as well been heated drywall. ;)
It said "after" not "because" and not "died of a surfeit of cinnamon/cardamom buns"
Maybe he was actually suffering from a cardamom deficiency and couldn't eat ENOUGH buns in time to save his life
He was tragically on his 15th bun, which would have saved his life, when he expired.
As is often the case with oddball food stories, Max Miller of tasting history has done an episode about it
Someone send a few to Trump? That old fart has no self control.
It might not be a hard limit, 13 might be more like the LD50 of cinnamon buns, more data is needed.
I volunteer!
Do not eat 14 cinnamon buns. You will surely regret eating 14 cinnamon buns.
So that's where we get the bakers dozen from..
We need a few more experiments before we can determine an LD50
So who is going to find out how much of the 14th can be eaten?
To Cinnabon I go…
Weakling
13.9
And I thought two was too many
Did the buns kill him? Or did he just die of syphilis or something while on a bun binge?
Too much cinnamon i guess. Is too much for the liver.
