A pineapple bun also known as PoloBun (Chinese: 菠蘿包; Jyutping: bo1 lo4 baau1; Cantonese Yale: bōlòh bāau) is a kind of sweet bun predominantly popular in Hong Kong and also common in Chinatowns worldwide. Despite the name, it does not traditionally contain pineapple; rather, the name refers to the look of the characteristic topping (which resembles the texture of a pineapple).
