I don’t think Krispy Kreme is the bestest thing ever. There are better donuts elsewhere to be had, but I do have to admit one thing.
Biting into a hot, freshly made original glazed Krispy Kreme donut does make me pretty happy.
Are you into Krispy Kreme or does your donut love lie elsewhere?

I’m not a huge fan of KK since it always leaves a weird aftertaste. I grew up on Dunken Donuts, especially the custard filled ones. Nowadays, I just prefer a plain old fashion.
I’m sad there are no Dunkin’ Donuts in California! I got used to Boston where there’s a DD on practically ever other corner. When I last went to Vegas, I brought a box home.
If I’m going to go for a glazed donut, Krispy Kremes are my favorite. But, my favorite donut is a french cruller (so hard to find!) If those aren’t available and I’m in a donut shop and therefore feel obligated to get something, I’ll go for an old fashioned (goes well with coffee).
Every time we’re on the east coast, we stop at a Dunkin Donuts – they still make french crullers!
And, we just stopped at Mary’s in Santee for the first time and loved their donuts! Awesome french crullers AND old fashioned donuts.
This must be a sign – the anti-spam word I had to type was coffee! I find that Krispy Kreme donuts are way too sweet. Although when they’re hot and fresh, they are pretty tasty (but still too sweet!).
I guess I’m not really a donut fan, although I prefer the simple glazed ones.
Hi Leanne – Ohh, cruellers are my favorite, too! They are really hard to find. There’s a donut shop called “Finest Donuts” down in City Heights that makes them, but they charge extra for them. The nice Asian lady told me they charge extra because the baker hates to make them – haha!
Hi Sandy – Yeah, they pretty much give you an instant sugar coma, but I when hot & fresh they melt in your mouth, which I love!
I love watching the donuts being made in front of you but it is not my favorite — although I wouldn’t deny one if it’s in front of me. I love cake donuts and apple fritters the best.
Although I have been known to enjoy a Krispy Kreme once in a blue moon, I prefer old fashioned doughnuts! my childhood favorite was the glazed twist (winchells!)
Hi Darlene! I do usually prefer cake donuts in most cases as well. Probably because I like the frosting on them!
Hi CC – Ahh, Winchell’s. I haven’t been to one of those in forever!
