Krispy Kreme v. Dunkin' Donuts - The Final Showdown
 

In one corner, we have Krispy Kreme, since 1937 delivering arguably the most popular glazed donuts, now with 0 trans fat.

In the other corner, there's Dunkin' Donuts, since 1950, serving breakfast foods, donuts, and great coffee -- much of it 100% fair trade certified.

Then there's "other," which needs no introduction.

You know, if you had called it the Final Countdown,it would have a theme song. :)

KK all the way.

Whoever voted for DD is going to hell with gasoline draws on, on a slow moving Greyhound bus that's leaking gasoline and all the exits are bolted down.

Oh, all that extra stuff won't matter. The DDs are so heavy, they'll be sinking fast.

I still love KK, even though the store near me just closed and was turned into a Tarbucks. :mad:

I don't do donuts, so I have to vote Dunks hands down. I'll have a medium coffee with skim milk and extra sugar, and a plain bagel, not toasted, with cream cheese on the side.

DD are hell on earth.

I only get donuts when I'm studying for finals. When I do, there's a local bakery called "Brown's" which makes a fine product. They also provide my wife with a few dozen free donuts which she sells at school to support her newspaper program.

Oh shut up! :D You and your Krispy Kreme cronies are hell on earth. (I'm kidding):p

Yay! Make sure you vote though.:)

KK, but only when they're hot. I like the fact that they're smaller than the doughy DD.

But there's a place up the street which makes wonderful doughnuts.

You know, as soon as I saw the title of this thread, that Europe song popped into my head, too!

I'm a DD girl, through and through. There are currently 3 stores within walking distance of my house. That is all I have ever grown up with. We didn't get a KK in my neighborhood until 2001 - and that store has since closed its doors. I have not seen another since then. I'll admit, I've tried one KK donut. Not my thing. And my father, a retired cop, never had the taste for them either. I think that says a lot!

Plus DD coffee is the best on the planet :)

lol :p

Point of clarification:

Is this poll asking which doughnut is better -- KK or DD -- or which place people prefer overall? I thought it was the former. (Okay, consider the coffee that DDs are meant to dunked in if you want.)

Not that the result shouldn't be the same either way. :p

People actually buy donuts at DD?
 

KK, no doubt about it.

I picture heaven as streets of gold with Krispy Kreme donuts lining the way. Because, in heaven, there are no such thing as fat grams.
