I hear you. I’ve had Krispy Kreme, and didn’t care for them. I like the donuts from a local donut shop much better.

Krispy Kreme gets a lot of hype and publicity. Is that why people think they are so great?

To me, Krispy Kreme is to doughnuts as McDonald’s is to hamburgers. Both are major chains, but the product they have is not nearly as tasty as you can find elsewhere.

Sorry, but completely disagree...

Grew up in the south with KK long before the New York money men showed up and ruined the company...

They have a SUPURB product... but honestly you have to have them warm...

If you are eating it cold, its just another donut...

And on that criteria, yes, I would choose other donuts.. but fresh out of the fryer, nothing else comes close.

That's part of it.

The other part is you can get them

still hot from the fryer.

Like french fries, doughnuts are better fresh fresh fresh.

Get ‘em from a shop where they’re actually cooked, early morning while they’re still warm. Packaged from a grocery store? Not even close. Of course, that’s also going to be why your local shop is preferred. Nothing beats fresh.
