“I made some synonym rolls. They’re tasty, delicious, mouthwatering, delectable”

“Cinnamon rolls” have been jokingly referred to as “synonym rolls” since at least the 1990s. Some people use synonyms to describe them.
   
“oooh…. looks delicious, delectable, mouthwatering, tasty, appetizing rT @IAmDeionte Just made some synonym rolls” was posted on Twitter by CHESHIRE on August 10, 2014. “I made some synonym rolls. They’re tasty, delicious, mouthwatering, delectable” was posted on Twitter by David on May 26, 2015. “I baked some synonym rolls. They were delicious, delectable, mouthwatering, appetizing, tasty, flavorful, and palatable” was posted on Twitter by Mr. B on September 3, 2018. “Bought some synonym rolls for breakfast. They look tasty, delectable, and mouthwatering” was posted on Reddit—Dadjokes on September 10, 2022.
     
Other “synonym rolls” jokes include “I made some synonym rolls. They all came out looking different, but they taste the same,” “Order synonym rolls. They have fewer calories than cinnamon rolls and taste the same,” “Synonym rolls…just like grammar used to make” and “What does a thesaurus eat for breakfast?”/“Synonym rolls.”
