Krispy Kreme were decent until they started putting them in every 2 bit convenience store on earth. Now they're just sugary & sticky & YUCK.

That's what I don't like about them. We had some for the staff meeting and they tasted like dough flavored sugar.

I'm a Duncan, but I was raised on Krispy Kreme!
Besides, we have no Dunkin Donuts in my area. I've only tried them in Atlanta. If I'm going to commit fat, I'd rather go with KK. :D

Oh honey....NEVER buy them in a convenience store! Those are old. ONLY buy them AT Krispy Kreme, and ONLY buy them when they're hot!
Otherwise, you might as well buy the Dunkins.

This is a difficult one. Dunkin definitely has the best coffee, but the donuts have gone down hill since they started having them delivered.

I'm a DD fan through and through as well. Growing up there was nothing like getting to go to DD and pick out a box of your favorite munchkins. I love their coffee and bagels and miss my DD runs on my way to work every morning. I wish they'd come back to CA.

Random sidenote but did anyone know that down in Lima Peru they have DD stores? My friend just got back from there and I found it hilarious you can get munchkins in Peru.

You can get them delivered? I've been away too long...

I think she meant that they're delivered to the stores, not made on site.

Seriously. Never by them unless the place you're buying them from has a Hot Light

and the Hot Light is on or still warm from being on. Fortunately, if the Hot Light's off, you usually don't have to wait too long for it to come on again.

I love donuts!!! I've been good though and haven't had any in a few years. KK donuts are too sweet for me and a little too gooey. I love Dunkin'.

Who buys Krispy Kreme from a convenience store?? I mean, seriously ... those aren't REAL Krispy Kreme. REAL Krispy Kreme are the ones from the Krispy Kreme shop, hot and delicious.

As for Dunkin Donuts ... I am not a very good cook, but I've made my own donuts that are at least as good if not better than Dunkin Donuts. We don't have any DDs in Savannah any more, and I don't miss it.

You are correct MysticCat. They used to be made on site. I went for a tour in girl scouts back in the 70s. We got to make our own donuts-the original dunkin kind-which they don't even make anymore. Remember the originals had a handle to make it easier for dunkin? At least where I am from, they have a delivery truck that comes every day with the donuts.

Well, if you have to put all sorts of disclaimers on them (don't buy them from certain places, only buy them when hot, etc) they're not very good, are they? ;) They should have never diffused the product like that in the first place.

I think we only have around 3 KK stores around here now, and none are anywhere near me.

KK's literally melt in your mouth if they are hot. Very delicious. If I had to have a "cold" donut, I'd go with DD's choc with choc icing with coconut or nuts on top. Cold KK's are not worth eating once you've had the hot ones.

But if you buy them from the Krispy Kreme store, they likely will be hot. I mean really, the only real disclaimer is don't buy any food from a convenience store or gas station, because it's pretty much going to taste like it came from a convenience store no matter what it is.

And I'll even bend the "only buy them from the store" rule a little. KKs have long been used for fundraisers for school groups, and the ones I've bought that way have always been just fine.

But even from a convenience store, KKs are better than DDs. :p

I've never had a DD donut, but I can't stand KK (even when they're hot and fresh out of the oven). It's like eating a glazed hockey puck. Jolly Pirate donuts for me!

I agree.
