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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
