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.

I can hear ALBOB running to this thread already



Posted by: Rob_NC

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.



Posted by: dg806

Baboon.....definately go get a dozen and try them!!! You'll love them!! Caution........they are addictive!!!!



Posted by: I Are Baboon

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.



Posted by: dg806

LOL! Probably would be!!! we would always get some late at night on the way home from eating out or going to a ball game!!



Posted by: I Are Baboon

Maybe I'll swing by at 5:00 AM on the way to the gym.

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.



Posted by: mochy

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!



Posted by: lina

Hey, mochy!! We'll have to start an "anti-Krispy Kreme" campaign around here...





Posted by: mochy

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.



Posted by: lina

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)!



Posted by: Chest Rockwell

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)



Posted by: Mudge

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.

Yummy KK .... the smell alone in that place fattens you up. Thank goodness I have not been near one in months

Can't say I've ever had a Krispy Kreme...

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!



Posted by: Stickboy

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.



Posted by: Mudge

For me cheat days are more hamburgerish than donutish...

Thanks for thinking of me though!

They have not made it up here in Ontario...Butt like somebody said...A dognut is a dognut!!!Can't be that special!!!

KK are for losers,, lots of hype,, would rather get a dozen donuts from the local grocery store.

p.s. this is my first post... hope it works



Posted by: mochy

Well thats not very nice calling everyone that likes Krispy Kreme LOSERS! They are the best donuts IMO but I don't think I'm a loser.

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!



Posted by: Burner02

I remember when the one in Denver opened up. People would actually wait in line for three hors for the things.
Now that the hype is down, there isn't much wait. They just opened up one here, but it isn't on my side of town, so I do not eat them very often.
The local consumer reports did a taste test on them and three different vendor's doughnuts. KK came in third behind Safeway (grocery store) and Day light Doughnuts.

But KK's just out of the oven...a must to experience!



Posted by: I Are Baboon

How is KK coffee??



Posted by: Burner02

Hot-n-black. Just how I like my...coffee...




Posted by: I Are Baboon

I had a cup of coffee at a local deli a couple weeks ago. Best damn cup of coffee I ever had. I need to find a place closer that sells it in mass quantity.



Posted by: Burner02

I really do miss drinking my cauppacino (sp?) after work in Italy...



Posted by: I Are Baboon

Ohhhhhhh...cappuccino........GOOD stuff!!!!

it's hard to find a decent cup of cappuccino.



Posted by: Burner02

That's why I had to go to the 'source'!

hmmmm, early morning after work, drinking a hot cup of cappucino and a pastry, on the outside porch watching everybody else going to work...

good stuff..

They opened up their first KK in Canada in Mississauga, Ontario in november. (Mississauga is like 20 mins south of Toronto for you geography buffs). Anyways I happen to be lucky and live 10 mins away and low and behold the line was 1 HOUR LONG! It's still like 20 mins long. People from Buffalo (1 and 1/2 hours from Toronto), NY, Ottawa (5 1/2 hours away) and Montreal (6 hours away) and Detroit (4 hours away) come to this city of 750,000(yes Mississauga is larger in population than every city in the U.S except about 15 cities there) Anyways the DONUTS RULE!!!!! I'm 18 so I'm living it up and man the boston creme donuts RULE! Now Tim Hortons is like the biggest thing in Canada, it's practially on every block here and Tim Hortons is like in some U.S cities now. DOnuts are better at KK but overall Tim H. rules because it has donuts, cakes, pastries, timbits(Tiny round donuts), soups, sandwiches. Man if any American comes to Canada and love soups go to Tim Hortons. Anyways I'm done.

Now that's fitting. Guess they couldn't do a 2002 calendar, the models all died of coronary disease.



Posted by: I Are Baboon

They have started laying the foundation for our KK!



Posted by: pood

KK donuts tastes like any other donuts, way to sweet.

i dunno what all the rave is about them, they're not that special

Hey,
I think he's 'double fisting' the doughnuts...





Posted by: I Are Baboon

Our Krispy Kreme opens next Tuesday (Oct 8). Just as I'm getting the diet back in check.

I'll probably wait a while to try a KK donut. I don't feel like waiting two hours in line, anyway.

Posted by: animal56

Honestly, I had a KK doughnut once, and all I thought was, "These are ass. More sugar than any doughnut needs."

I was wondering what all the hype was, and it was at that moment that I realized why North America is so fat. If they consider these doughnuts good, then a Big Mac must be heaven to these people.

Blech.



Posted by: J'Bo

Did you guys really think that i was going to pass by this thread and not comment. The donut Queen herself is here and ready to give my 2 cents. First of all i am very disspointed that EarWax has not posted a reply in here.

I have never had a Krispy Creme cause i am a Canadian and here in Canada we have Timmys and Robins Donuts. The blueberry jam busters and chocolate dips are ummmmmmm good. I am making a trip to the USA in search of a Krispey Creme next month (the sole purpose of my trip) and i will let you know what my royal opinion of them is then.

Hey DP and everyone else!

Glad to see the donut obsession is still going strong. LOL

The Krispy Queen returns! All hail!



Posted by: Dero

HELL!!!


Oh hail,sorry I thought you said hell...




What is it with these Krispy Kream anyway????
Do they make walnut crunchs? If not,they are not worth the noise I hear about them...

Yup, I live in Newington, about a mile from Krispy Kreme. It opens in five days. They have a huge sign in front of the place that counts it down. I think I'm more excited about the idea of KK than the donut itself. I'd be more excited if they had good coffee, but I hear the coffee there is only so-so.

If you live in South Ontario, there is apparently one or two surrounding the Toronto Area. I think one is in Mississauga.

Not that I am advocating doughnut eating.

Blech.

Nice easy walk to high school though.

OK, back to Krispy Kreme........

Today was opening day. The line for the drive thru was a quarter mile down the street at 7:00 AM. The parking lot was a frickin' zoo!



Posted by: davidjasondean

I drove by their around 10:00 pm tonight to find the breakdown lane backed up towards the DOT in the south bound lane!

Talk about a crazed obssession!!!!!!



Posted by: I Are Baboon

And you wonder why Americans are so fat. My wife drove by this morning, and they had police directing traffic. POLICE DIRECTING TRAFFIC BECAUSE OF A DONUT SHOP.





Posted by: davidjasondean

My sister said she sent her husband on 5 different occassions and they still had an hour wait???



Posted by: I Are Baboon

Dude, we went to Dick's sporting good last night. People were parked in the AMES LOT and walking over. And you should have seen the boxes people were carrying out of that place! Obviously, these folks are all on bulking diets.



Posted by: dg806

Still gotta try just one!



Posted by: I Are Baboon

We're trying, DG. We can't get near the damn building.

So as a cop, do you find it rediculous that some officers are assigned to direct traffic around a frickin' donut shop opening? (I'm not trying to make a cop/donut joke here).



Posted by: dg806

Yep......but I guess, seeing how it is causing trouble, I guess they have no choice. Either direct traffic or the wrecks pile up!



Posted by: Leslie2196

I would wait in line for a Krispy Kreme right now LOL



Posted by: dg806

Me too.......I'm starving!!



Posted by: Burner02

I wold stand in line for 1/2 hour...just to watch you eat one!




Posted by: dg806





Posted by: TheIcon2

I love pumpkin donuts. So glad that is this months feature donut. The smores donut was great and so was the triple chocolate donut. I didn't care for the apple pie donut but non-the-less still good.



Posted by: Burner02

stop that...I'm hungry!



Posted by: Leslie2196

LMAO at DG and Burner



Posted by: Burner02

I am here to help put a smile on that beautiful face of yours!



Posted by: TheIcon2

Anyone see that dad and son duo that slept in there van for 2 nights in Cinncinati so they could be the first people at the new Krispy Kreme there. They got a year supply of Krispy Kreme donuts. Must be nice.



Posted by: Burner02

all being said...I'd rather have been first in line like that for a new whore house in Nevada with the same free year supply of women....
guess we all have our priorities...

I am sure the women at the whore house would look much better than the women walking out of Krispy Kreme last night. Talk about some fat monsters!!!

I was at Vito's Newington IAB, and we had a Deep Dish Chicago pizza..... now that is yummmmmmm delicious!

Also, went to Luna's of W. Hartford, Vito's of Hartford, Vito's of Newington, Bertucci's of Newington (yuck!) and Sally's of New Haven. It was worth the drives!

As for Krispy Kreme, I'll be back up in a week and I will try this so called pastry!

I'll be in Berlin, CT

Vito's.....GOOD STUFF!!!! I refuse to eat Bertucci's because it has made me sick three times. Yes, the Newington one is guilty. I have not been to Luna's, but right next door is Harry's. I love thin pizza, and Harry's is by far the best thin pizza I have ever had.

Bertucci's is the WORST. No, wait, Elm Hill is the worse! My idiotic friend from Berlin took me the last year! Holy Shit did that SUCK! Ha Ha Ha!
