Krispy Kreme!

As a result from Lina's comments in another thread....

I have never had a KK donut. They are putting one up a mile from our apartment...first one in New England. I hear KK donuts are good.

KK world headquaters is about 13 miles from me. And yes, there are good!! Although they are not in my diet.

BTW ~ Anyone that bought KK stock when it went public probably made a pretty penny.

I don't know DG...I hear the line may be around the block for the first couple of months (LOTS of fat people around here!).

I was at the KK website reading their investor relations section. They are expanding into pretty much EVERYWHERE.

Not yet, but like I said, they are expanding rapidly. I hear they are moving into MA next. I live in Newington, Connecticut, where this KK is going up (just south of Hartford). They are still clearing land, so the KK hasn't even started to be built.

Few so I have a year or so before I need to worry! Hopefully they will start on the west side of MA first before working their way over. Their donuts are the best!

No shit! Have you ever had one of those. They are so addicting! I never had one until I went to Las Vegas! They are everywhere though. The only donuts I ever had was Dunkins and I don't care for them so I never tried Krispy Kreme until last year. I sat there eating saying its a good thing these aren't in NH! Now look.

Never had 'm! *Phew* But I know myself too well...
I don't care for Dunkins' donuts either...

But as IAB there will be a line outside the door, so I think atleast that's a good deterrent for me not to gooooo and get yet another addiction started (besides peanut butter)!

Krispy Kreme Donuts Rule!
I try to avoid them as much as possible.
They are very very addicting.
1 bite of a single donut usually becomes a buffet
of at least a dozen donuts.
Try the new smores flavor.(warning, very addicting)

They are ok, but I do not see in any way, why people were driving hundreds of miles over the weekend to get these damn things. They are not all that, not by far, they are different than regular donuts, big freaking deal.

I never understood the fascination myself - I mean, a donut's a donut, right? - until I made the trek and had one hot off the presses. Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh, they're SO yummy......hot and puffy and sweet, they practically melt in your mouth. When they've cooled off, they're just not the same. Otherwise I'd mail you some!

I can't stand them. Too sugary or something.

I'm with you Mudge, I cannot understand the appeal for these things. Then again, I bet I can count on one hand how many doughnuts I've eaten in the last 15 years.

I am one of those fat and stupid people.
It use to take me around an hour to drive to all
the places to pick up my food on a crazy cheat day.

I dare you to say that to the few hundred people in Winston-Salem, NC that work at the KK headquarters. I think you'd have a few pissed of rednecks and you couldn't handle that.

I'm with you, Mochy! To each his or her own. Having tried them piping hot, I now see what the fuss is about, personally - and if people want to go out of their way to get them, why the hell not? I guess put me in the fat, stupid, loser bunch too!
