Dunkin’s is oh-so-much better than Krispy Kreme; and I say that being a New England transplant originally from the south, or “Krispy Kreme Country”.

I will use the information about the French translation of Kreme to gross-out my turncoat friends when they start lauding the virtues of a Krispy Kreme way of life.

Choosing Dunkin’s, I at least feel that my once in a while treat isn’t a crazily terrible self indulgence. Krispy’s in two words, are just too SICKENLY SWEET. If I wanted to be sent into a diabetic coma I would've opted for the funner and slower-acting method of eating a little too much sugar or carb over a long period of time.

But then all donut peddlers are devils in my view, Dunkin’s is just the lesser of the two... or are they? I recently heard that the company owns a lab that studies food addiction. Now, why ever would that be? Can anyone confirm this as fact, or, more hopefully, debunk as rumor?

My advice: Skip the morning coffee & donut run and eat a beignet instead.
